Russian World War II Reenactment
Russian soldiers in replica World War II gear re-enact the events of 1941, when troops marched directly to the front from Moscow's Red Square to fight the invading Nazis.
Do you think there is value in these types of reenactments? Here in Canada our own re-enactors are occasionally accused of glorifying war. I do not think that is the case at all.
I see these as living history lessons, that re-enforce the truth that war is anything but glamorous, and must be avoided or prevented at all costs.
Lest we forget......
