“...but they pay respect to their own men who fought the soviets.”

Americans pay greater respect to slave women in pancake commercials from the 1960s. Respect for the men who fought would be to parade them in an uniquely Latvian uniform, not a throwback to the Nazi occupation of Latvia. Enough said.

The uniquely Latvian uniforms date from after the 1990s.

in the 1940s they wore different uniforms. It's like asking civil war re-enactors to wear WWII era uniforms.
