Number 782664.It is without the Order Book.I left it in my collection because of the nice condition and the number is less than 1,000,000.It could be awarded during the war. -

My father served in the Slovak Army from 1941 to 1944,he was a driver of a truck in an Artillery Regiment.There are a lot of small photos left.The Slovak Army was fighting against the USSR in coalition with the Nacist Germany.My mother was telling he had also a German Eisen Kreuz.Probably when he was in Slovakia at home on leave the Slovak National Uprising begun and he became a member of resistance.Not only partisans took part in resistance but mainly soldiers of Slovak Army in Middle and Eastern Slovakia begun fighting against the Regime of of Jozef Tiso.There is a lot of info in Wikipedia. I am repeating the photos of the Order with the Order book-Ordenska knižka.I did not expect my story about my father would be interesting for you.My father was not awarded e.g. with Lenin order.The Order of the Red Flag of Labour is a very common award. -

If you are intersted,I will give some more information.It is my fathers Combat Service Medal Sertificate.He was awarded as an antifascist-member of resistance in Slovak National Uprising.He fought in the partisane unit Čapajev.I think I would be interesting to create a topic about the badges of Slovak units of resistance.In division there is only one-Partisane unit of Jegorov.My father was Slovak,but we lived in Ukraine-USSR from 1947 to 1966.In 1966 my parents returned to Slovakia-ČSSR.He was also the second cousin of Michael Strank. https://korzar.sme.sk/c/5718881/serzant-michal-strenk-rodak-z-jarabiny-na-vychodnom-slovensku.html -
