EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photograph, taken on September 6th, 1945, we witness a remarkable moment frozen in time. American soldiers stand in awe as men from the renowned 504th Parachute Infantry of the 82nd Airborne Division gracefully descend upon Tempelhof Airport in Berlin. The jump, executed with precision and bravery, was not only an impressive display of military prowess but also a heartfelt tribute to Marshal Zhukov of the Soviet Union. At a mere height of 750 feet above ground, these courageous paratroopers honorably paid homage to Zhukov for his instrumental role in capturing Berlin during World War II. As commander-in-chief of the Russian zone of Germany following the war's end, Zhukov's leadership left an indelible mark on history. Captured by esteemed photographer Fred Ramage, this landscape-format print captures both the grandeur and solemnity of that momentous day.
