Today on May 9 in Russia a big holiday - Victory Day. It is a holiday with tears in the eyes. I had two grandfathers who participated in the Great Patriotic War. Today 71 years from the date of the Victory were executed. On parade in Moscow at Red Square troops of the Russian army, and also the latest military equipment and aircraft are shown.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPzrWcN_rLo&feature=youtu.be

Thanks for post. Hope you had an enjoyable "holiday"! Pride and History are great things to NOT forget!
Thanks! I rat that was pleasant to you. On May 9 in Russia a big holiday. The truth as speak with tears in the eyes. Fathers and grandfathers who were at war and have died, they have died not for nothing. They have died that we and that we in life were lucky more than him lived. Each parent wants that his children have lived happy life and they were lucky even more. I wish all the peace sky over the head!

No matter the country, veterans feel the same. Thanks for sharing your story!
According to official figures in days of the Great Patriotic War 27 000 000 people have died. I when studied at school we have counted that if to give to each died soldier a moment of silence, then in the country for 50 years nobody would talk.largest battles in history . great honor for the very tough Russian soldiers and people!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for good responses! It is pleasant to me that it is interesting to the people living far on that side of border to watch and know such things.
Yes. Indeed. If not the Soviet Union, now probably there would be no such countries as France, Italy, Poland and other European countries. Russia always helped other countries and always strove for world peace.
