"On the New Year’s night of 1945, in Turku, Finland, which then served as a Soviet submarine station, Alexander with friends went to a local restaurant where the Finns were celebrating the New Year. After a few shots the Soviet officers got into a brawl with the Finns, Hitler’s onetime allies. The charming Swedish lady, the restaurant’s owner, interfered right before things got out of hand and escorted the Russians into her office. Tall and handsome, Marinesko caught the woman’s fancy and so she invited him to stay for the night. The whole affair reached the ears of the Soviet military command, which did not like it at all because Soviet sailors were strongly advised against visiting local bars, let alone rub shoulders with foreigners. Marinesko’s whole career was hanging in the balance… He acutely felt he could lose his job any moment now, despite his exemplary service and numerous decorations. Finally he received an order to sail and that was when he sank the Wilhelm Gustloff and the other German transport."
