February 23: Defenders of the Fatherland

February 23: Day of the Defenders of the Fatherland
Today is the Russian Holiday "Day of the Defenders of the Fatherland". This holiday was originally created to celebrate the day the red army was formed. Now it honors all men who have served in any branch of the military. This poster, and several others displayed throughout the city, commemorates the day.
