In 1942, the Far North was home to an icebreaker, almost devoid of weapons. Despite this, it stood as a formidable force, blocking the path of a German cruiser. Led by Captain Anatoly Kacharava, a small detachment of sailors held back the enemy for over three hours. This daring act thwarted Operation Wunderland, a meticulously planned Nazi operation aimed at preventing a Soviet convoy from delivering essential supplies to Arkhangelsk.
