I just got the Urnukh's book "The Orders and Medals of the Mongolian People's Republic (1924-1992)" and I feel I must write it's symply amazing: absolutely the best book about the mongolian orders/medals.

I'd say it's such a bible for the collectors in this area (and Urnukh is a gentleman for sure: I emailed him for a couple of doubts I got and he has been so prompt and kind in answer me immediately. Thanks Urnukh !)

Cheers,

Many thanks, Rick.

Very explicative.

represent ?? And the graduation ??

I'm not a boy anymore, but believe me, I'm still feeling like something of myself would have been torn away. As a son of an army officer, I've lived the typical life... moving from one city to another (13 moves in 18 years): he's always been a father, a friend and someone I could always talk about everything with confidence, also in his last months.

io credo siano le pi? belle parole che un padre sogni mai di sentire dette da suo figlio.

senso del dovere, rispetto del prossimo, lealt?, onore....se questa ? stata la semina di tuo padre, caro amico mio,

queste tue parole sono il pi? bel raccolto potesse avere.

accetta le mie condoglianze per la perdita di chi deve essere senz'altro stato un grande uomo: onore al merito !

P.S. I beg your pardon, folks, but I was not so able to tell Enzo, in english, what I did want to tell him. Sorry.

"Coraggio fuggiamo" .... and the Bersaglieri would do it at a trot!

funny, moreover when said from a pope guard

yes i saw something like that but only for gold medal 'al valor militare' awarded
