Victory Day 2011

Back on May 9th we observed Victory Day, the traditional Russian holiday that we refer to in the West as VE-Day. And in keeping with tradition to honor defenders of the Motherland (Родина), AB dons his pilotka (пилотка), a field cap worn by Soviet soldiers during the Great Patriotic War.....



Of course when you're seven, it's pretty hard to avoid getting silly, even when observing a most solemn holiday....
