In the huge Central Theater of the Red army in Moscow, the stage was loaded with military notables, their chesty uniforms stiffened with buckram to carry the weight of glittering decorations. Center of attention was Marshal Nikolai Bulganin, new Premier of the U.S.S.R. and longtime top military commissar. The speech of the day was made by the new Defense Minister Marshal Georgy Zhukov, who has a better right than Bulganin to call himself a soldier...
