Description

0996: Blacksmith and Warrior at anvil
0997: Stalin at tank factory

Text:

As in the olden times the strong blacksmith
Inspired the warrior to heroic martial feats
By turning with wondrous work a steel sword
Into a “magic sword.”

So in our days, his descendants
Without tiring, day and night:
Forge weapons, bone-crushing tanks
For our beloved heroic warriors!
