\*\*This is the memory of all the allied soldeirs who lost thier life in WW2 and especialy Leningrad (St. Petersburg) \*\*

Today, 60 years ago, the siege was lifted…

This is just my way to remember the lives lost to preserve Russia, and East Europe. My grandfather (Field Surgeon Officer) took a bullet when he was fighting with the 6th Shock Army. And he lost countless freinds. My grandmother in the meantime, was on the rooftops **throwing incindiary bombs off roofs with only a metal hook!!**

Much respect to them and all the freinds and comarades lost, in living memory.
