Tonomachi Posted April 4, 2022 Share #2 Posted April 4, 2022 The last word is FLEET but a friend of mine couldn't make out the first word because it is incomplete. However I was told that the partial word of BLACK can be seen in the partial first word so I asked if it probably says Black Sea Fleet. This friend of mine felt that the word BLACK SEA FLEET written together would be worded differently. My guess is that it does say Black Sea Fleet.

Gwar Posted April 5, 2022 Share #5 Posted April 5, 2022 The Northern Fleet (Russian: Северный флот, Severnyy flot) is the fleet of the Russian Navy in the Arctic. According to the Russian ministry of defense: "The Northern Fleet dates its history back to a squadron created in 1733 to protect the territories of the Russian Empire, sea trade routes and fisheries in the White Sea near the coast of the Kola Peninsula. The order of the Commander-in-Chief of the Russian Navy of 25 May 2014 determined 1733 as the year of foundation of the Northern Fleet, and June 1 as its annual holiday".
