Short and concrete exposition of feat of arms and services
During the battles of the brigade Comrade Buznitsky showed himself as a brave and courageous combat engineer. On the 5th of March 1944 Comrade Buznitskiy received a combat mission to lift the enemy mine field and to make a minefield-lane. Comrade Buznitsky personally picked up 304 enemy mines in 4 hours. Thus made a minefield-lane for the Soviet tanks and they rushed headlong into the fight.
When the tanks were moving forward Comrade Buznitsky was sitting on a tank as a sapper-trooper. Way ahead he noticed an enemy dug-out shelter. Despite sharp mortar and artillery fire Comrade Buznitsky got off the tank and broke into the dug-out shelter and killed 2 Germans.
Sergeant Buznitsky V.P. deserves the Government award “The Order of the Red Star”.

What a great award and detailed research
well done
regards
1 -
well this is an interesting topic
I would think it should extend to anyone who has of is required to work through this if they are providing a service away from a isolated place such as their homes. Top of the list for certain should be health workers then others to follow. there are different sectors of the now limited work force that still need to front up while others don't. There will be people such as the emergency services, utility workers, food production chefs and delivery staff, supply chain teams etc. who may not be as front line as health workers but in their own way provide a important service and will also have an increased risk of catching the virus.
Maybe the medal could have a similar ribbon, 1 for direct front line workers, and 1 for support / not front line as would be good to acknowledge those who but others needs a head of their own

Hi Peter
regards to the double long service group they seem similarly numbered but don't think they are tailors copies as the naming is same style as the other medals in the group and other Indian medals.
yes agree the quality of the metal used is not great.
I looked at trying to research the medals when I was in India a year or so ago, but no one seemed to helpful

yes I also agree the group is made up
the numbering is different both in ink as well hand writing.
Also the OGIII would have been awarded between late December 1944 and February 1945 so that also would make the dates on the award booklet suspect

Hi
yes the medal looks fine and correctly named.
In the UK you would pay between £25 - £35 for a 14/15 star to a British infantry or corps unit, more for a harder or more desirable unit such as Yeomanry

Hi Mike
with the ribbons when I can use the original I do, most of the WW 2 ribbons are original, most of the WW1 are replacements as most of the ribbons where not in great shape or short lengths. I do though keep them all as cant bring myself to throw them out
