Thousands of soldiers, veterans and other dignitaries gathered under overcast skies in Moscow, awaiting the start of the traditional Victory Day parade over the cobblestones of Red Square. More than 5,000 elite servicemen in crisp uniforms were scheduled to participate, marching in lockstep past President Vladimir Putin. Veterans, their chests covered in medals, poured into the capital for the ceremony. The May 9 Victory Day holiday continues to resonate here, a country that emerged devastated but triumphant from what Russians call the Great Patriotic War. The Soviet Union lost an estimated 27 million people in the war. On the eve of the celebrations, Russia''s Defense Minister Sergei Ivanov saluted Russia''s military and declared it as important today as it was 59 years ago. He said it was the lone guarantor of Russia''s security and its ability to meet its foreign policy goals. Parades were planned across Russia, and the Defense Ministry ordered 30-gun salutes to be fired in 15 cities at 10 p.m. local time in this nation of 11 time zones.
