#17 is a great photo by Yevgeny Khaldei, and is actually photo montage (in your face, photoshop!)
he also took the photo of the russian soldiers holding the russian flag on a building of berlin after it was taken over.

#17 Good info. I knew about the Reichstag photo, but not about this one. Further research shows "it was Khaldei’s take on the German offensive to capture Murmansk, codenamed Operation Renntier (Reindeer)".

Also, the reindeer part of the photo apparently came from when the reindeer came out of hiding to be with Russia soldiers because it didn't want to be alone during the bombing… No word on whether the soldiers then killed and ate the deer, which I imagine they did.

#28 That's extremely common after a stroke, she has Broca's aphasia and possibly dysarthria. While taking her to smell candles is very nice, getting a speech therapist to help her talk again would be even nicer.
