Soviet Red Army day or Russia's men's day?

Today is Soviet Red Army day. In modern Russia they celebrate it as "men's day " or army day. However, These Russians demonstrating for socialism carrying Stalin's portraits. Stalin against Putin? I am not sure how that works out, only a Russian will know.

(There were speeches against Gorbachev as well.)

  2. No idea.
    Apparently, There were 800,000 women who served in the Soviet Armed Forces during the war, which is roughly 3 percent of total military personnel.
