Soviet The Rarity of Kursk Awards
godefroy replied to Wild Card's topic in Russia: Soviet Orders, Medals & Decorations
Salutation, ground dig awards very often bring a deeper history, despite of their condition (only s/n matters). And here is original citation of Hamitov's ORS. Whats more,i think if we talk about Battle of Kursk we should consider it as a sereies of military operation, battles, local offensives and counter-offensives (ex. Zitadel, Kutuzow, Rodimtsev, Prokhorovka, Obojan, Bogodukhova, etc.) All fights between 5th July and 23th August in region of Kursk we could generaly call Battle of Kursk. Regards
