Sorry the group isn't mine. I've taken the photos from a facebook site from a person who was selling it. Thank you for the interest in this topic!

Great photo! Too bad there's no writing in the back. I wonder what happened with this guy's medal.

Such a remarkable lot with a great citation for the Bronze Star! Please share the shadow box with us once you make it.

This sawback bayonet is absolutely gorgeous!

There's a limit of 8MB of files you can post. You've probably tried to upload more than that. Great photos! Please, keep them going. Is there anything written at the back of them?

Only Medal for Bravery.

Thank you for sharing your grandma's history with us! Here's her medals, there are some that I can't identify but I'm sure they are related to association of fighters. 1 - ? 2 - Russian medal for 65 Years of Victory in the Great Patriotic War 3 - 10 years of Yugoslav People's Army 4 - Russian medal for 50 Years of Victory in the Great Patriotic War 5 - This medal was originaly awarded to foreigners in Yugoslav Partisans but it was later given by SUBNOR (association of fighter) so your grandma received it from them 6 - Order of Labour with Silver Wreath (3rd class) 7 - Order for Bravery 8 - Medal for Bravery 9 - ? 10 - Order for Bravery 11 - Order of Republic with Bronze Wreath (3rd class) Is your grandma the one in uniform and medals? If so, she's wearing an Order for Bravery and Medal for Bravery(from left to right). Also, by the insignia, we can tell that she was a political officer in the rank of potporučnik (2nd Lieutenant) if I'm seeing it right.

Remarkable set!

This medal was established just a few months ago so I guess it will be a bit hard to get it for some time.

Nice addition! This one was awarded to a Lt.Colonel of the financial branch of service.

Incredible bar! Why are there swords on the ribbon bar for Spanish and Morrocan medal if there aren't swords on them in full size.

Actually Croatian uniform during the Independent State of Croatia period.

Really enjoying your posts! Very nice medal and even nicer document with all the graphics.

It's Yakovlevich not Yaklovich. Nice lot by the way!

I see you're making wonderful progress Andrei. You don't need colorisation professionals when you do such an amazing job yourself. I would really like to see more colorised Romanian WW2 photos.

15000?! That's impressive! Good luck posting them all.

Hello Valjevo! I don't understand a few things about your post. You say there's a list of all holders of Partisan Commemorative Medal of 1941 and you state that the guy's name is under 688 on that list but you don't know what site it is. Also, if you know who he is, why didn't you just write his name instead of giving us hints how to find him?

Amazing photo!

This is awesome! I really like the trenchy look, definitely better than sanding the wood.

Thank you for the info!

Interesting...now that I look at the photo where all awards are presented I notice that the star's size is significantly smaller than all of the other medals which are somewhat similar in size. This leads me to believe that it's not a medal on a state level although I'm probably completely wrong. At this point I might be giving you false leads with my assumptions.

Could it be from some of the French African colonies?
