Hi, The Russian is Marshal Zhukov. Quick google search on "Marshal Zhukov inspects Grenadier Guards 1945" turns up a link to this book - Once a Grenadier Your photo is on Page 14. It was taken in Berlin in July 1945. I haven't looked any further through the book but if you do you may find mention of the location and date it was taken in the text. Steve Y
