Hello GMIC members, This great war-labour award bar (not researched yet) includes a Order of the Red Banner of Labour, Order of the Badge of Honour, Medal "For Courage", Medal "For the Victory over Germany in the Great Patriotic War 1941–1945", and Medal "For the Capture of Budapest". Once I get the "Учотная карта", I will share the information about this labour/war veteran with the community. I wish everybody a great weekend. Best regards, SovPha

Hi guys, I am really sorry. I've uploaded the pics from MeWe. I will post them again.

Step by step?.

Awesome. Thank you very much. I have roughly over 15000 original photographs. I will post them step by step))). My wife purchased for me a large collection of HSU owners from the 2nd WW till the late 1960s. I am glad that I am with this forum.

A great lot that belonged to Corporal Shirley D Griebe, who was a member of Company G, 9th Infantry Regiment of the 2nd ID which saw action during the Korean war "Forgotten war". General Orders from 1952 119 thru 126 / HQ of the 2nd ID https://bit.ly/2wES415 P.S. I am currently working on a nice shadow box for this outstanding lot. Best regards, SovPha

Hi John, Thanks for the prompt reply. All my pics are larger than two MB. Do you recommend any website or services to compress the files? Believe or not but I am not on Facebook). Wr, Andrej

Hi Lukasz, This is how I see the post. Can you check again from your side?

My 1st post in this new section?. Got this interesting photograph with a Soviet Guards Lieutenant Colonel and a polish Master Corporal. The Soviet officer has a Guards Badge, Order of the Great Patriotic War (probably 1st class), Victory Over Germany medal, and several polish awards. Reverse is empty.

Thank you very much for sharing.

Your welcome . SMERSH/NKVD and Partisan archives will be closed for a while. The Belorussian government opened recently a database for Belorussian partisans?. P.S. Putin announced, that this year a new website with never seen photographs, videos and information will be released.

Hi Redoctober, The meaning of the word is Barrier troops. I have attached some useful information below. https://stalinism.ru/stalin-i-armiya/stalin-i-armiyazagraditelnyie-otryadyi-vyimyisel-i-realnost.html https://nornegest.livejournal.com/470387.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barrier_troops P.S. Would be great to see the Red Star. Best regards, SovPha

Hello GMIC members, Here we have an interesting document which confirmed that a soldier owned several medals and lost the documents + awards. Translation: Issued to Guards SGT. Ryazanov Nikolai Gerasimovich, confirming that he really has following awards: Medal "For the Capture of Budapest", Medal "For the Victory over Germany in the Great Patriotic War 1941–1945", Medal "For the Victory over Japan", and Medal "For the Liberation of Prague". Awards and documents are lost. Verified by the Head of HQ Unit 72481 Guards CPT. XXX. Best regards, SovPha
