Hi Rick,

Sorry forgot to mention the publication data for the book.: Saint Petersburg : Russian-Baltic Information Centre, 2001.

It does include a small traditional portrait photo and a small list of awards. I give them here in Russian. I won't try to translate them as I have very little knowledge on Soviet orders.

Награжден орд. Ленина (1949)

Красноро Знамени (1944)

2 орд. Отечественной войны I ст. (1942, 1985)

Красной Звезды (1944, 1945)

Then it just says medals (very useful ).

Kind Regards
