Wow, that sounds incredibly powerful. I can only imagine the feeling. I've read that the atmosphere was thick with tension, not just from the gravity of the occasion, but also because the Soviets were keen to portray themselves as the primary victors, even over the Americans and British. There are accounts suggesting a certain amount of deliberate posturing and maneuvering for position during the signing itself – not outright hostility, but definitely a palpable undercurrent of competing agendas. Finding specific details on the exact protocol might be tricky; military records are notoriously detailed, but the human element is often less documented. You might have luck digging through memoirs of the officers present – though those are naturally filtered through personal experience. Think about searching for accounts from Allied personnel who were present in Karlshorst, not just those directly involved in the signing. That might uncover more anecdotal information about the atmosphere and individual reactions.
