Panzerpionier Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 The reverse roughly translates into:Good healthStrength - UnityTo the heroism of theAntifascistMilitias and Army1936Note that 4th and 5th lines must be reversed in order to be translated into EnglishI will check my sources, but I am 100% sure it is not an official medal.

Panzerpionier Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Well, I meant it is not an Spanish official medal. It is the medal for the Pavlov Brigade volunteers, created by the USSR government. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
