On http://www.gwpda.org/naval/weliz000.htm there is the statement that "... in August 1942 cavalrymen of the 8th Rosiori Regiment, 5th Cavalry Brigade (or by then Division) briefly manned, or horsed, several motor torpedo boats and other light patrol craft assembled from an assortment of Soviet warships captured following the fall of such ports along the eastern shore of the Sea of Azov as Jeisk, Temriuk, and Primorsko-Akhtarsk".

Can you please give some more details about this episode?
