Greetings to the glorious Cavalry Army, the terror of the whiteguard legions of Krasnov and Denikin, Wrangel and Pilsudski!
Greetings to the leaders of the Cavalry Army, Comrade Budyonny, the Red peasant general, and Comrade Voroshilov, the Red worker general!
Men of the Cavalry Army! Your Red Banners are covered with the unfading glory of resounding victories on the fronts of the four years’ civil war. On this day of celebration of the fifth anniversary you must vow that you will remain faithful to these banners to the end of your days, that you will fulfil with honour your duty too your socialist Motherland when the working class calls upon you to fight new battles for the victory of communism.
Yours,
J. V. STALIN
