Comrades, our own fleet doesn’t know our full potential. They will do everything possible to test us; but they will only test their own embarrassment. We will leave our fleet behind. We will pass through the American patrols, past their sonar nets, and lay off their largest city, and listen to their rock and roll, while we conduct missile drills. Then, when we are finished, the only sound they will hear is our laughter, while we sail to Havana, where the sun is warm, and so is the… comradeship. A great day, comrades. We sail into history!
