May 1, 1945 Red Army flies Soviet flag high over Berlin

On this day, May 1, 1945 German radio announced the death of Adolf Hitler.

The statement said that he had ‘fallen at his command post in the Reich Chancellery fighting to the last breath against Bolshevism and for Germany.’

Nothing could have been further from the truth; the coward had killed himself.

That same day the victorious Red Army flew the Soviet flag atop the Reich Chancellery in Berlin.

Mother Russia lost between 20 and 30 million defending their country from the German hordes.

The following day, May 2, 1945, the Soviet Union announced the fall of Berlin.
