"Song of the Stalinist Tankists," also translated as "Song of Stalin's Tankists," is a Soviet political and military song written in 1946 celebrating the heroic Red Army tank crews during the Great Patriotic War and the excellent leadership of the Soviet Armed Forces by Marshal Stalin. During the war against fascism, the Red Army, spearheaded by columns of tanks crewed by heroic men and women fearless against the fascist hoards, dealt ten major blows to the bloodthirsty fascists. These ten blows became known as the ten blows of Stalin, reflecting the leadership of the Red Army and the strategic genius of Marshal Iosef Stalin. In battle, the soldiers of the Red Army considered Stalin's strategic genius to be paramount to their victories, holding the leader who had helped build up their country in great respect, and it was said where the Red Army went, so too went Stalin with his strategic genius.
