On June 24, 1945, the most famous parade of the 20th century, the Victory Parade, took place on Red Square. It was hosted by 49-year-old Marshal Georgiy Konstantinovich Zhukov. He is at the zenith of fame and popular love. Zhukov has a caring wife, Aleksandra Dievna, two daughters, and a beautiful fighting friend, Lidiya Zakharova, who went through the entire war with him. To Stalin, the Marshal's popularity seems excessive. And then Western experts add fuel to the fire, calling Zhukov Stalin's heir.
