Some 2000 young Ukrainian nationalists, carrying torches, march in Lviv late on January 29, 2011 to mark the 93rd anniversary of a battle near the small city of Kruty. 300 students, cadets and schoolboys were killed, during a combat against the regular Red Army on Jan. 29, 1918, to protect the new-born Ukraine's People Republic against Bolshevik aggression.

Ukrainian nationalists mark anniversary of Battle of Kruty

Some folks in the old world have very long memories. I suspect this march is more about Ukrainian nationalism than about remembering the sacrifice of the soldiers in the Battle of Kruty.
