The Victorious Banner of Great Lenin
The lead editorial commemorates the anniversary of Lenin’s death. It addresses submariners directly, calling on them to uphold discipline, repair ships quickly, and intensify attacks on the enemy. The article highlights the ideological succession from Lenin to Stalin and promotes Lenin’s teachings as a guiding force for naval combat.
Notable phrases:
– “Let Lenin’s banner shine for you”
– “Leninism is truth, strength, and a weapon”
It ends with a call: “Long live Lenin! Long live Leninism! Death to German fascism!”

About Lenin
A poetic excerpt from Vladimir Mayakovsky’s poem Vladimir Ilyich Lenin, including lines such as:
– “Party and Lenin are one and the same”
– “When we say Lenin, we mean the Party”
– “We guard the bark, on which at night — a swamp, on which a red mark cares for the soldier to the death”
Accompanied by a photo of Lenin reading the newspaper Pravda.

In Memory of the Great Ilyich
A chronicle of events held on the 18th anniversary of Lenin’s death:
– Radio program At the Microphone: readings, lectures, interviews
– Political talks aboard ships and in shore stations
– “Photo-Showcase” displays with portraits of Lenin; memorial meetings
– Komsomol submariners organized memorial watches and gatherings
– A solemn garrison-wide memorial assembly was held.

Additional note:
The issue was marked for destruction after reading. Nearly all copies were likely destroyed, making this one of the very few surviving examples. It had been preserved in the editorial museum of Dozor, and was eventually transferred to the Museum of the Red Banner Baltic Fleet, located in Tallinn.
