Photos from Barnaul WWII Memorial and Victory Day celebrations on Barnaul's Victory Square (May 9).
Over 200,000 soldiers from Altai State died in WWII, which is huuuuge considering that the entire state has a population of less than 1 million people.
The poem in the photo reads something like this:
Remember!
In a century,
In a year, -
Remember!
O, those
Who are never to return -
Remember!
