 * Comment. Resolution is too small (see FP criteria). I don't know if an exception can be made here due to its historical significance. —Bruce1eetalk 08:30, 1 September 2015 (UTC)
 * I think exception in historical images doesn't really follow any standard especially war pictures. I need to say those featured photos bellow don't have any sort of resolution precedence rather than this picture.

 * Comment I'd be surprised if there wasn't a better PD photo of this iconic event, and the recent insertions of the photo have ill-informed captions - this wasn't "the victory parade", it was a parade conducted for political purposes a few days after Paris was liberated (to remind the French of the US Army's important role in liberating and securing the city).
