About the book: 1963 / The borders of our country have changed a lot. The continuous chain of hostile capitalist states encircling the Soviet Union crumbled. Now most of our neighbors are countries building socialism. But the capitalist encirclement continues to exist and in some places directly approaches our borders. Border guard soldiers are at the combat post to protect the state interests of our Motherland. Much has already been written about their heroic deeds and, probably, much more will be written. After all, if the capabilities of imperialist intelligence services to organize provocations on the border have narrowed, our expanded ties with foreign countries allow them to send their agents under the guise of tourists and businessmen. But the border guards are fighting back against them here too. You will learn about the everyday life of combat of the border guards of today from the stories in this book.
