Please be careful dear colleagues. These are everywhere ...

Dmitry I. Kohanovskiy was the only person awared with 5 Glories (two 3rd classes, two 2nd classes and one 1st class). In August 1945 by the military Tribunal of the 94-th guards rifle division, by articles "robbery" and "rape" Dmitry Kohanovskiy was sentenced to four years in labor camps. Naturally he was deprived of all his Glories...

Another antique thread is back! Here we go. Kanji 大正三年乃至九年戦役従軍記章 Pronunciation Taisho San-Nen no Itaru Kyuu-Nen Seneki Juugun Kishou Cheers, Nick

You can do whatever you like. No need to inform me about your auctions P.S. Good luck with this "walting my way thru pseudo-expert land"!

On second thought ... Here comes an excellent example of your behavior dear "non-combatant" http://gmic.co.uk/index.php/topic/59287-finally-a-maker-to-go-ith-this-cross/ Post #18 All these demands ... "Show me" "What is so obvious?" or this phrase "The older collectors have a hard time"... What the heck is this?! Ok, I will rephrase. Dear Don, why do you get so combative when someone presents comments that oppose your views? Or this thread (where you in your second (!!!) post declared that I am "still fighting the Cold War" in thread that was started in section that recommends "Pull up a leather chair, order yourself a drink and sit back and enjoy the company." Guess only guys who supposed to "enjoy" this section is you and your friend Chris B) http://gmic.co.uk/index.php/topic/58900-the-bestest-fighter-hero-of-all-time-or/page-2 That's why I will greatly appreciate if in the future you withhold your comments about my "combatativness".

Dan, I was talking about giving up map that was made for and (probably used) by His Imperial Majesty - living God for many japanese. You are talking about giving up day-to-day uniform ... I am afraid we are talking about slightly different things. I simply expressed my doubts ... Nothing more Now about this your comment Combative?! Me?! Dear Dan, please re-check this thread very carefully - especially post # 9. What you view as "combative behavior" is simply me "trying to explain" why I have doubts that this map was used in the presence of Emperor? Of course these doubts can be ill-founded ... I also tried to explain my point of view on "celestial purity" of Christie`s. That`s it.

Indeed! Or somebody took unissued original Courage, mixed it with empty original doc and doctored them for 5-7 minutes on slow fire :whistle:

Indeed mutato nomine de te fabula narratur :lol:
