Teaching on Chemical warfare. The personnel was still resting when a chemical alarm sounded. In less than a few minutes, the soldiers and commanders were at their posts, having gas masks ready. Particularly organized were the soldiers of the degassing party-Red Navy Agaltsov and the foreman of the 2nd article of Trofimov. Having quickly put on protective wear, they went on reconnaissance. The remaining fighters of the party prepared their property for actions to eliminate the consequences of the chemical attack. Agaltsov and Trofimov quickly discovered the source of infection, fenced it, and began to decontaminate along with the entire party. The exercise was conducted in conditions as close as possible to a combat situation. The Red Navy's degassers, Tarasov, Kuznetsov, and Vilovsky, showed good preparedness, acting skillfully and cohesively, they quickly eliminated the consequences of the «chemical attack.» The Red Navy, who recently arrived on the ship, showed insufficient knowledge of the rules of chemical protection. Additional classes will help these comrades to master chemical defense faster and better.

Torpedo salvo! In the dry, frosty air, the order of the commander in charge sharply sounded: -Art servants down! Frozen steel tools revived. The bow and stern artillery quickly disappeared into the boat. Piercing the foggy mist with a sharp sea eye, the watch commander, Lieutenant-Captain Bulgakov, for the last time looked around at the slightly flickering silhouette of an enemy ship. Tightly lifting a heavy bronze hatch, he ordered an urgent dive! Raging foamy waves burst into the tanks with noise, extinguishing the buoyancy of the ship every second. A cool breeze passed through the compartments. The deck floats out from under the legs, and the boat with a trim on the bow with a stone falls to a depth. The strong, muscular arms of the submariners grew to the arms of complex mechanisms. The boat hid under the water, laying course towards rapprochement with the enemy. — float to the periscope depth! Cook the bow torpedo tubes! The order was rehearsed and quickly executed. From a depth of 20 m, the boat began to smoothly toss-up the raging sea. She, as a child in a cradle, rhythmically tilted to the left, then to the starboard side. A sharp whistle of the first compartment rang out in the wheelhouse, and the watch commander clung to the telephone pipe. Chopping, prepared bow torpedo tubes — Yes! — clearly answered Bulgakov. About 10 minutes passed, and in the eyepiece of the periscope, except foamy waves, nothing was visible. Soon acoustics petty officer 2 articles Syomin reported: -the right side 30, the noise of transport screws! Carefully examining the horizon Bulgakov smiled and, wiping his forehead with a sweaty sleeve, ordered: -Course 190. Both are small ahead! The right device ready! My heart began to beat fast. The enemy was approaching, attack, an explosion… Pli! The hull of the boat trembled violently. The torpedo came out, the bow of the ship rises rapidly, but the boatswain holds the ship at a depth and does not allow him to emerge and be noticed… dead silence reigned. No one will move, only quickened breathing, but the beating of the heart is heard a little audibly in the compartments. Terribly weary seconds pass, but there is no explosion. But the faces of the submariners suddenly shone, a spark of joy appeared in the eyes, the boat fluttered slightly, this torpedo hit the target, exploded, formed a huge water column in the place of the enemy ship… Submariners on the land front in the battles for Leningrad. In a moment of mortal danger looming over the city of Lenin, many submariners went to the land front. In the battle of the Baltic people near the village of Manuylovka, the fascist hordes received a strong counterattack. In this battle, the Germans lost many of their chosen warriors and retreated, despite a great numerical superiority. Petty Officer 2 articles Shulgin, Tsarev, Lieutenant Posadsky, Red Navy Sokolov, Tyurin and others showed fearlessness and heroism. The Red Navy Maximov, under strong enemy fire, carried Lieutenant Posadsky, wounded in the leg, from the battlefield. For the bloodshed by the comrades, we will answer and even more mercilessly defeat the damned fascists and in subsequent battles, They liberated several settlements. In these battles, comrades Tsarev, Shulgin and Sokolov showed courage. The mutual aid of the fighters is strong in battle. When I was wounded, and I found myself in a difficult situation, the Red Navy Sokolov came to my aid. He skillfully bandaged me and sent me to the hospital. The comrades listed above are now in one of the marine brigades and are also fearlessly and mercilessly extreme Краснофлотская газета «Дозор» 25. Marh 1942. 2 pages
