On this day, 103 years ago, first soviet secret police and spy agency was formed- All-Russian Extraordinary Commission for Combating Counter-Revolution and Sabotage- Cheka. Cheka, and her succeeding agencies GPU, OGPU, NKVD, MGB/MVD and KGB, played major role in USSR’s history.
This is a song of chekists, about their job and everyday sacrifice in strugle to maintain freedom and security of the state, of russian/soviet singer Joseph Kobzon, with pictures of important functionaries of state security apparatus, as well as most notorious soviet spies deeply in enemy lines!
Lyrics
Чекист рожден в борьбе, мужал в сраженьях жарких.
С той пламенной поры немало лет прошло -
Фуражку со звездой, потертую кожанку
В музее положили под стекло.
The Chekist was born in struggle, matured in hot battles.
Many years have passed since that fiery time -
Peaked cap with a star, shabby leather jacket
In the museum they put it under glass.
Но враг готовит нам опять огни и войны
