      Gents, What appears to be a CBE neck badge (worn as a breast badge) on a HSU Guards general who fought at Kursk and later in Machuria. Regards, slava1stclass
    2. slava1stclass
      Gents, Although only a "75 percenter", he is nevertheless an impressive two-war veteran who deserves inclusion here. Regards, slava1stclass

      Gents, Combat decorated. Regards, slava1stclass

      Gents, Maj Gen P. I. Levin is definitely a big boy. Regards, slava1stclass

      Another unknown branch insignia.

      Gents, Although a bit later (photo dates to September 1942), a very nice cavalry insignia on this Cossack colonel. Regards, slava1stclass

      Rick, I recently came across this image which offers somewhat better detail of this branch insignia. Regards, slava1stclass
    12. slava1stclass
      Nice medical corps.

      Note the tanks from Kings 8th Royal Irish Hussars in the background.

      Gents, A couple of additional color images from that day. The first was taken prior to the investiture. Regards, slava1stclass

      Gents, Uncertain of this one. Regards, slava1stclass

      Rick, Great catch. My bad. After reexamining the image more closely, it dates to June 1, 1956. The stamp on the back partially obscured the year. Note, too, that he was awarded the Order of Nakhimov. Regards, slava1stclass
    20. slava1stclass
      Gents, Naval Medical Corps Maj Gen A. I. Katkov. Note the medical corps insignia on his shoulder boards. Photo is dated June 1, 1986. Regards, slava1stclass

      Gents, Rick is correct. Erroneous multiple awards of the same class of the Order of Glory were not uncommon. Archival research will verify/refute this particular case. Regards, slava1stclass
    22. slava1stclass
      Gents, The British Distinguished Service Order (DSO) worn on a Soviet M1945 "Victory Parade" general officer uniform. Regards, slava1stclass
