I thought that was the national anthem of the Soviet Union.

"The Hymn to Red October" can actually be interpreted as an American patriotic song:
"Hail to our fathers and our forefathers.
We are faithful to the covenant we have made in the past."
(the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution?)

"Now, nothing can stop our homeland's victorious march."
(our own homeland's victorious march from Lexington to Fallujah?)

"In October, in October, we reported our victories;
In October, in October, our forefathers gave us a new world."
(the American victory at the Battle of Yorktown in October, 1781?)

Incidentally, anyone who speaks or has studied Russian will quickly realize that the choir singing the song is not made up of Russian-speakers.
