Victory Park


Kade and I, in 2007, when we were touring a WW2 memorial museum in Moscow, walked by an auditorium filled with older men.  I got curious, and as they were adjourning the meeting, I saw name badges.  They were American names with states where they were from, underneath.  As it turns out, they were veterans of WW2 and were there with their Soviet/Russian counterparts.  We were allies during the war, of course.  This gathering was a chance to exchange stories and celebrate their victory over the AXIS powers. I actually talked with a nice gentleman from Maine.
