15th JanuarySoviet Veteran
World War II veteran from Belarus Knostantin Pronin, 86, sits on a bench as he waits in hopes of finding other men from his unit at Gorky park during Victory Day in Moscow, Russia, May 9, 2011.
This picture made me sad. To think that there will be a few less friends from your unit until that one year you’re the last one, just waiting.
I mean, from Belarus to Russia and what he found was no one? And he kept on waiting. And probably kept on reminiscing memories he had with men from his unit.
