Russian's go Soviet-style for Celebration


Russia celebrated Victory Day today, which marks the defeat of Nazi Germany. They celebrated by having more than 100 tanks, missile units, and armored vehicles go thorugh Moscow.


The celebration was full of the color red as well as the hammer and sickle that was traditional of the U.S.S.R. But the Russian government reassured the world by saying that it was purely for the celebration and that Russia was not heading back to Communism in any way.


I think it's nice to see a country go back and use whatever good meaning they had about their past, regardless of how controversial it could potentilly be.
