The Red Army is the common name for the land forces of the Soviet Union. The Red Army ceased to exist as a formal entity due to the dissolution and break-up of the USSR in 1991. That being said during celebrations marking the anniversary of the War, Red Army uniforms and unit insignia are often worn and paraded commemorating their contributions and sacrifices.
