Kliment Voroshilov reads from a sheet of paper
In a plain room with a curtained window and a row of chairs, a heavy-set officer with swept-back grey hair, his tunic hung with orders and a large star on his sleeve, stands at a table covered with papers and reads aloud from a sheet held in both hands. The face is that of Kliment Voroshilov, whom the source names as the commissar signing the annual oath. As People's Commissar for Military and Naval Affairs from 1925 and for Defence from 1934 until May 1940, Voroshilov headed the Red Army through the purges of its officer corps and the Winter War against Finland.
