I congratulate you on the victory over the enemy and the liberation of Rostov from the German-fascist invaders.

I salute the valiant troops of the 9th and 56th Armies, led by Generals Kharitonov and Remizov, who have raised over Rostov our glorious Soviet banner.

I. Stalin

Moscow, 29 November 1941.
