And another one... SB spotted:)

Had a look at my SB's today... there's also a distinct difference between Screwback and Pinback... have a close look at SB's head and the "bulge" on his cheak. Clear way to identify a pin/screwback from the front.

Another old one

Another nice one... from Stalingrad Panorama Museum

Thought I'd post this pic somewhere and this thread seemed OK:)

Zhukov box:) As seen in Stalingrad Panorama Museum

No clue - but let's see what can be found out:)

A pic from around Mamaev Kurgan on Victory Day last week... this guy has done some interesting stuff I am sure!

Seen in Stalingrad Panorama Museum

In addition, a rare award document for an honored architect! The architect of the Stalingrad Panorama Museum:)

And in the Stalingrad Panorama Museum I was able to see an award document!

I know - not a good pic... looking in close up it looks like (surname) Prodimizva

Even more...

Here we go, a nice series from the Stalingrad Panorama Museum... last pic: Skanderbeg!

Must be pretty rare for a Soviet to get an Albanian award!

Slightly more detail

Here's what looks like a very old book

Wrong thread, but nevertheless nice to see this... look at the number of Mongolian awards this guy got:

- 3 SB's

- 1 hero star

Pic was hanging in the Kalach-on-Don regional museum outside of Volgograd. A wall with all local guys who made it big during the GPW.

Just came back from a trip to Volgograd / Stalingrad and surroundings for May Victory day celebrations.

Also did a side trip to various sites outside of the city... including to Kalach on Don (close to where the Russian fronts came together to surround Paulus. A delightful little museum there... with some interesting Mongolian items.

First of all, please refer to above mentioned honorary badge numbered 266... I came across a documented one in this little museum! And to, what appears to be, a pretty important guy. Sorry for low quality pics... bad lighting, glass plate + digital cam one generation too old!

Awaiting research...

And a nice one related to Soyuz 39
