Prague had been freed in the ‘Prague Uprising’.

German troops negotiated and were able to march to Patton’s army to surrender but were disarmed.

Soviet troops ‘liberated’ Prague on May 9, losing 10 men to SS holdouts.

It wasn’t the Battle of Berlin or Budapest by any means.

Yes, it couldn’t be. Hitler was dead.

They had the guts to hold the Prague uprising because they knew the Red Army had liberated Berlin and would reach Prague very soon.
