Just a small addition - the Major General in post #31 isn't 'Fedyunskii' but the well-known Fedyuninsky, who became an Army General in 1955.

Thanks!

Just an e-burp, it seems?

This looks lovely. Perhaps TOO lovely.

Interior spread.

OK, OK, I lied.

My justification is that maybe, just maybe, knowing his pre-war experience will help us understand what happened to him during the war (beyond getting his mouth shot off).

Document exterior.

Thanks for the questions.

By the way Ed:

1. How's the OMSA convention?

I sooooo wish I were there. Not this year. Time, money, money, money. Next year, I hope. Have EJ selling The Book however. Just had to FedEx more to him.

and

2. LOVED the JOMSA article!!

Thanks. More are in the pipeline.

Would he have worn the Ethiopian award (foreign) at the first of his group? I don't know much (well, ANYTHING) about Swedish regulations.

This is a nice group that gets nicer with the telling of the history behind it.

I suspect a combination of the distinguished railway record and the serious (!) wound moved him up.

Somewhere in here (as I suspect is the case with most GPW Soviet groups) is a movie script much better than that "Enemy at the Gates" thing.

Has ANYONE heard ANYTHING recently from The Researcher? I have been trying to contact him, for some time, with the two e-mail addresses I know.

Help.

Maybe a response by PM is better?

Thanks.

Yes, Rick, it is almost worth getting the research re-done to get that white blob filled-in.

While there is much more, I'll pause here to allow for comments (if any).
