Translated from Russian:
Combat Marine Corps of the Northern Fleet on the Rybachiy Peninsula. 1943
During the Great Patriotic War, the Northern Fleet defended the seaside of the Soviet Arctic, supported ground forces, defended its maritime communications and disrupted enemy communications. Thanks to the joint actions of the 14th Army of the Northern Front and the Northern Fleet, the plans of the German command to seize Murmansk and the fleet bases on the Kola Peninsula failed.
The sailors of the Northern Fleet also fought on land. A separate brigade, several regiments and battalions of marine infantry with a total strength of about 10,000 men were formed at the expense of the fleet personnel. In 1942, when the Supreme Command assigned the Northern Fleet responsibility for the defense of the peninsulas Middle and Rybachy, the Northern Defensive Area was established. With this task the personnel of the fleet managed successfully.
