Partizans enter a destroyed Tirana victorious.Note the way they are saluting,at the begining Partizans in Albania were lead by the Democratic front,who wanted Albania to become democratic after the war,but Comunists won the next general elections,persecuted many of the real leaders of the war,turned the country into e dictatorship,and twisted the historical events into sain that the war was won by comunists,when in fact it was won by an aliance of many,including comunists,and mainly by villagers who did not really have any political afiliation exept fighting a foreigner in their land.Latter the salute was made with a fist ,and not the way it is in this picture.Pictures with this salute showing the real liberators of Tirana were hunted down and destroyed,but as we can see many of them resisted and remain to this day to bring truth into light.
