Golden Jubilee of WWII in Russia

Moscow 1995: 50th Anniversary of victory in II World War celebrations in Moscow. It was held just outside Moscow where the final war to retake Moscow from the Germans was staged. That was the mother of all celebrations. 50 heads of states including Mr. Clinotn was there and we were there too! Thousands of impeccably dressed armed forces personnel, hard ware, air force jets flying low over head and music and gaiety all around. Except that Mr. Boris Yeltsin was as usual a peg or two more than he could handle! Usha, Bhuvana and Nikhil posing with WWII veterans.


A view of the impressive march past.
