This picture shows two soldiers hosting the soviet flag over the Reichstag. The Reichstag is the German parliament building located in the city of Berlin. The picture was taken after the taking of the building, and is the symbol of the Soviet victory against the Nazism. This is important, because usually the roll of the Soviet Union is forgotten by Occident. The Great Patriotic War is like the Soviet called that war, millions of man and woman died on this and is celebrate until today in the old countries of the Union.
I like this picture because represent the sacrifice of the Soviet people during the War, as a less prepared army could defeat another with the strength of them bravery and conviction. I don’t like Stalin or the terrible way wish take the Soviet Union later, but is important to remember this part of their history.
