The time eventually came for the German Reich to reward its soldiers who had participated in the Russian Civil War. In the streets of Berlin, a wide celebration was being had. Specifically, a military parade. It was not, however, a parade for the actual German Army, but for the roughly 25,000 German Soldiers who had gone off and volunteered to put down the Red Menace.
This event had several major purposes in mind. One was, of course, to show appreciation to the men who had boldly taken up arms against the enemy of all of humanity. But two was to gain support for the Right-Wing within German politics of the era.
