Handshake of Torgau - Elbe Day on 25 April 1945
This is an excerpt from the film "The Spirit of Liberation": • Spirit of Liberation -...
US and Soviet soldiers came together on the destroyed Elbe bridge near Torgau on 25 April 1945 to symbolically seal the end of the Second World War. The American patrol, consisting of William Robertson, Frank Huff, James McDonnell and Paul Staub, met Lieutenant Alexander Silwaschko and his Soviet soldiers in Torgau at 3:30 pm.
The war photographer Alexander Ustinov reenacted the events with the original protagonists the next day, as the first meeting was not photographically documented. The end of the Second World War was already within reach shortly afterwards.

It's really sad to see. The celebration and joy and seeing each other as comrades. Knowing what came next.

Без ленд-лиза СССР вряд-ли бы выстояли в 1941ом, без второго фронта вряд-ли взяли бы Берлин в 45ом, а о Тихаокеанском фронте и говорить нечего, там Китай и США обеспечили большинство успехов.

@@andrzejlasek7927 And now, when every one of these aids and advantages has been squandered and thrown away, Great Britain advances, leading France by the hand, to guarantee the integrity of Poland - of that very Poland which with hyena appetite had only six months before joined in the pillage and destruction of the Czechoslovak State. There was sense in fighting for Czechoslovakia in 1938 when the German Army could scarcely put half a dozen trained divisions on the Western Front, when the French with nearly sixty or seventy divisions could most certainly have rolled forward across the Rhine or into the Ruhr.
