History
The corps follows the traditions maintained by the original Russian cadet corps in the Imperial Russian Navy.[2] The process of its creation began on 25 April 1995 by order of the Mayor of St. Petersburg Anatoly Sobchak.[3][2] The corps was created at the insistence of President Boris Yeltsin and a joint decision Minister of Defense Pavel Grachev and Mayor Sobchak.
