I was talking with my pal about those, by email and make for him an illustrations for simple hints. Howto know is it a real screwback order or remade one. I want to share it with you, most simple one. Easy to spot especially on ebay, with that miserable photos.

Well, dunno how you you would like this: It says, Armenian Socialist Revolutionist Party, Dead or Freedom. Now the history, belong to party 'Dashnakcutyun', 1st Armenian Republic. Don't be mistaken by the parties name. The are £$%^&* nazi. betrayed t Armenia during the genocide 1915 by Osman Imperia. In 1941 joined to nazi Germani were faithing against SU ( ignoring the fact if Germans took Moscow, Turkey would step into the war and first target gonna be Armenia). Restored after 1991, and bane in 1997 on the territory of Armenia, Georgia and Russia for drug-traffic. Now they back again.Complite mother-"£$%%^&^&& 'hit-and-run-patriots'

It's russian, meaning RF badge of military(any kind) qualification , there is 4 levels 3.2.1.M(master) nise set of Soviet/RF naval staff :cheers:

Wounded twice, after the second one been classified as 'disabled -3 group' and still was working with explosions Final one: deserved to be granted with OPW 2class general-lieutenant, stated to be awarded by OG3

Nice group, document looks like genuine. The cavalier, could have the medal with temporary citation, and in 1949 it was relapsed by the booklet, that's why it's the same handwriting. One thing is, it doesn't say when it starts, the field 'started from' is not filled in. But in most cases it happens cos of lack of info. The star is from range of that years 1947-1949 :cheers:

I'm using this web site http://www.warheroes.ru/ It's in Russian, but there is babelfish

Sorry, but next time you need any gap filler SU medal, just PM me, It will much cheaper and painless :cheers:

Nope, in that case the guy should have no belt on
