Today's (15 August) military parade on Poland's Armed Forces Day.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZUQHtyvuWo
This year Poland is celebrating a 100th anniversary of regaining independence (1918-2018), therefore the celebrations have particularly large scale.
Besides the participation of the delegation from allied armed forces, there was also a large presence of re-enactment groups in historical uniforms of the Polish military of past centuries.

Re: Random picture thread Mk 3
not a picture, but a joke I found on YouTube... of all places:
A large group of Russian soldiers in the border area in 1939 are moving down a road when they hear a voice call from behind a small hill: "One Finnish soldier is better than ten Russian".
The Russian commisar quickly orders 10 of his best men over the hill where upon a gun-battle breaks out and continues for a few minutes, then silence. The voice once again calls out: "One Finn is better than one hundred Russian."
Furious, the commisar sends his next best 100 troops over the hill and instantly a huge gun fight commences. After 10 minutes of battle, again silence. The calm Finnish voice calls out again: "One Finn is better than one thousand Russians!"
The commisar, now furious, musters 1000 fighters and sends them to the other side of the hill. Rifle fire, machine guns, grenades, cannon fire ring out as a terrible battle is fought...
Then silence.
Eventually one badly wounded Russian fighter crawls back over the hill and with his dying words tells the commisar, "Don't send any more men...it's a trap! There's two of them!"

An interesting photo article about the female sailors of the JMSDF aboard the helicopter destroyer Kaga and the push towards recruiting more females to fill the manpower shortage in the armed forces.
Some interesting photos within the hangar and the landing deck.

I love this comment from "Command Master Chief Yasuharu Tohno"
The presence of women on board has had one unexpected benefit on the men that report to him, says Command Master Chief Yasuharu Tohno, the most senior enlisted sailor on board. ‘They shave regularly and iron their clothes,’ says Tohno, who joined up to an all-male fleet 35 years ago

Re: Random picture thread Mk 3
want to go to the restaurant, someone should draw this one:

The five-story "building" was spotted cruising along the Yangtze River on Saturday. The "building" was actually a floating restaurant. Authorities said the restaurant needed to relocate due to policies changes
