The Baltic Fleet is “the cradle” of the regular Marine Corps. On November 16, 1705 by the order of the Emperor Peter I started the formation of the marines regiment destined for boarding, landing and combatant service on ships. Since then, the marine regiments and battalions of the Baltic Fleet took part in each war of Russia.
During World War II 100,000 Baltic sailors, included to numerous brigades, regiments and battalions, took part in the defeat of the Nazi troops near Leningrad (now St. Peterborough), in the Baltics, East Prussia, having laid the foundation of the modern use of the Marine Corps.
