V-E Day

Seventy years. It’s been this long since May 8th, 1945, when the Red Army closed in from the east, struck in the heart of Nazi Germany, Berlin, and raised the Red Army flag, signaling the fall of European fascism.

It had taken more than 6 years for the war to end, since the Nazis started annexing and invading lands, following a madman’s nightmarish dream.
