Battle greetings to the cavalrymen!

Greetings to the soldiers, commanders, and political workers of the Cavalry Army, who smashed the hordes of the enemies of the Soviet Union and drove the predatory interventionists out of our country!

Greetings to Comrades Voroshilov, Budyonny, Shchadenko — the builders and leaders of the Cavalry Army!

The history of the Civil War is adorned by your glorious victories, comrade cavalrymen! Your bravery and courage serve as an example for our youth.

Let us hope that the sharp sabers and accurate bullets of the Red cavalry, when the situation demands it, will serve the cause of defending our great Motherland just as well as they served in the recent past.

I. STALIN
