Playing Soldier

All right, they're on our left, they're on our right, they're in front of us, they're behind us... they can't get away this time. - Lieutenant General Lewis B."Chesty" Puller (when surrounded by 8 enemy divisions)

A member of a WWII reenactment group waits to hit the streets of Prague in a small celebration of the freeing of Prague and in effect the entire country from Nazi occupation. Though the Russians were the official liberators of the eastern front these men and most everyone in the country would rather put on US or British uniform to remember. After all the Russians were the liberators that never left.
