Anti-aircraft gunners! Multiply your combat successes. Strike the enemy in the very heart!
Victory of the Anti-Aircraft Gunners
Bushes and trees seemed to come alive: the dark green barrels of powerful anti-aircraft guns rose upwards in an arc. Orders from the battery commander, the instrument operators, and rangefinders passed clearly and quickly. Gun commanders Snov, Chaikin, and others impatiently awaited the signal. The roar of enemy aircraft engines grew louder.
Here it was — a Junkers-88. Commands rang out, and powerful multivoiced echoes of fire thundered. The anti-aircraft gunners acted with precision, their shells bursting ahead of the target. Chaikin aimed at the crossing trajectories, and his shell hit the enemy’s engine. Flames burst forth. The Junkers lost control and plummeted. A young gunner had destroyed an enemy aircraft with a single shot.
The retreat path was cut short. Peasants and Red Army fighters blocked the forest. The Junkers met its end in the woods — an explosion, black smoke rising high. Another battery engaged, setting ablaze yet another Junkers.
L. Ryakhovsky
The Enemy Will Not Escape!
The raid on the airfield began in the afternoon. We strengthened observation and prepared the guns. When an enemy aircraft appeared on the right, it was already in the sights of comrades Zharov and Kharkov. Fire was opened immediately. The enemy aircraft burst into flames, fell, and exploded. Another Junkers destroyed. The crew did its duty.
Junior Sergeant G. Vorobyev
Our Shells Hit the Target
August 11. The day was poor, with low clouds. Observers kept watch at their posts. Suddenly, the sound of engines — and from the clouds, a Junkers-88 appeared. Orders followed swiftly, shells roared upward, enemy planes burst into flames. Our gunners had proven their accuracy, shooting down several enemy raiders.

Junior commander! With a firm hand, impose military order in your unit!
Junior Sergeant Zimin
In educating his men, Junior Sergeant Zimin emphasized unity, discipline, and comradeship. His soldiers were always neat, clean, and ready for combat. Once, noticing sailor Mashkov unshaven, Zimin remarked, “You must shave.” Moments later, during an enemy air raid, Mashkov reported, “Carrying out the order!”
Zimin both instructed and led by example. “Our commanders,” say the sailors, “demand discipline, but they are also caring and attentive. We have all become skilled specialists under their guidance.”
Red Fleet sailor V. Ignatov
Take Example from Leading Fighters
Red Fleet sailor Timofeev was the best guard in his unit, exemplary in duty and political awareness. His comrade Garkusha likewise showed steadfastness. These men, comrades, are examples for all.
I. Viktorov
“Our junior commander is not only a caring superior for the Red Army soldier. He is also his constant comrade, teacher, and friend.”
(Voroshilov)
Be Ready for Chemical Defense!
Symptoms of Poisoning and First Aid under Chemical Attack
Poison gases are dark, odorless liquids, evaporating slowly. They form persistent contaminated areas. Contact with skin causes burns; inhalation damages lungs and poisons the body.
Symptoms: labored breathing, coughing, chest pains, tearing, weakness.
First aid: immediately put on a gas mask, treat contaminated areas with decontaminant powder, iodine, or soapy water, remove contaminated clothing, rinse eyes with water. Evacuate the victim quickly.
Within 2–4 hours: nausea, vomiting, dizziness. Treatment: administer antidote, give hot drinks, keep warm.
