Hostilities in the Pacific theater during the Second World war did not cease even as Europe marked the end of the war on its own soil. Japan refused to back down until the very end. However, faced with the imminent arrival of vast Allied forces freed up from other fronts combined with the rout of the Kwantung Army by Soviet-Mongolian troops and the use of atomic weapons, Emperor Shōwa accepted the terms of the Potsdam Declaration, which demanded Japan’s unconditional surrender. He announced this to the nation on August 15th 1945, and the instrument formally ending the Second World War was signed on September 2nd.

Get Oktyabrskaya Revolutsiya in the Guardian of the Baltic Sea Event!

In October 1911, the battleship Gangut was launched, named after the Battle of Gangut, the Russian Empire’s first naval victory. After the First World War, the ship remained inactive for a long period; it was subsequently refitted in 1925 and renamed Oktyabrskaya Revolutsiya (October Revolution). At the start of the Second World War it was redeployed to Kronstadt, where between 1941 and 1943, it engaged German forces positioned near Leningrad with artillery fire. Although the Luftwaffe made numerous attempts to sink the battleship, it survived every bombing raid and artillery barrage. In 1943, it helped lift the Siege of Leningrad and continued to support Soviet offensive operations in the Baltic region until the summer of 1944.
