All new recruits to the Imperial Navy underwent basic training here-covering discipline, drill, seamanship, gunnery, signaling, and engineering-before joining the fleet. About Engine Room Sailors (Kikanhei).

May 1937 Red Army parade, a montage of “USSR Builds Socialism” and many other pictures of instructors, many of which are rarely seen.
