1970 For Victory Over Nazi Germany 25th Anniversary Classified Military Newspaper

Description

This confidential military newspaper, dated 1970, was published exclusively for internal circulation within the Mongolian People's Army to mark the 25th anniversary of the victory over Nazi Germany (1945–1970). The front page features a bold Soviet-style illustration of a soldier with a sword standing.

Originally labeled “For The Motherland,” this edition highlights Mongolia’s deep ideological alignment with the Eastern Bloc and its commemorative efforts honoring World War II sacrifice and heroism. These classified issues were not available to the public and served as powerful morale boosters for active military personnel during the Cold War.
