In the absence of any other information, let me ask if anyone knows ANYTHING about the details of Soviet awards to prominent Mongolians, specifically: D. Sukhbaatar RSFSR Red Banner (March 1922 -- believed to be today in the national museum in Ulanbaatar, but details presently unavailable) K. Choibalsan Suvorov 1st class (8 September 1945) Lenin (before 1943) Lenin (after 1945) RSFSR Red Banner (March 1922) USSR Red Banner (before 1940) S. Magsarjav RSFSR Red Banner (March 1922) Y. Tsedenbal Kutuzov, 1st class (8 September 1945) Lenin Lenin October Revolution G. Demid Red Banner (before 1937, of course) J. Lkhagvasuren Suvorov, 2nd class (8 September 1945) October Revolution Red Star Twenty other awards to senior officers, 8 September 1945. Details elusive. Since some don't read across the fora, I am also posting this in the Soviet forum. http://gmic.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=10330 Apologies for duplication.
