The earliest document at the exhibition dates back to the end of the 18th century. This is a statement by Stanislav Kolupailo about providing him with assistance for military equipment. The exhibition displays service records and photographs of military personnel, images of military insignia, uniforms and a number of other documents. The exhibition materials relating to the pre-revolutionary period were prepared by Deputy Director of the National Historical Archives of Belarus Sergei Ryndin.
