Alternative twist on the LAH regalia (1 Viewer)

[redhugh]

Thought this might be a cool twist on the LAH theme, the same regalia except in the hands of the russians Zukov on his white horse at the red square victory parade would also add to the scene along with some russian and allied spectators,
Even though the soviets turned out to be miserable so and so's, gotta give them credit for halting and destroying the NAZI's in their tracks

Credit when due, thats symbolism at it one of its best.

Dishonouring the Leibstandarte is an excellent way of debunking the Nazi Aryan Myth.

That is a very neat old picture. Love the building on the right.

Can't remember exactly where I got the one of Zukhov but the other one can be found on wilkipedia under "moscow victory parade of 1945"

There are also links on that page to colour footage of the parade itself , as well as the famous scene of the german standards being tossed in a heap

Combat, thanks for the tip.

An interesting thing about this parade was that Stalin was afraid to mounted the horse and fall, so he asked Zukov to do so….

Very true.Seeing the flags in the dirt is a powerful image.
