Mongolia Those Incredibly Confusing Numbered Unit Awards

[Ed_Haynes]

Battushig shows many badges (for example C46, C49, E15, E21, etc.) that have been awarded to numbered units of either the army or the border guards (perhaps interior as well?).

Someplace, I expect, there is a key to what "Unit 0131" was (is).

Until we get it, can we post our NIB (not in Battushig) numbered unit badges here please?

Unit 016

Well, it was formed in 1923 and celebrated its 80th anniversary in 2003 (for which this badge was awarded?). And, somewhere along the way, it was awarded the Red Banner of Labor and the Red Banner of Combat Valor? Beyond that, . . . ????

Unit 0151

Two very different badhges, both screwback, for uint 0151, whatever it was?! Awarded the Red Banner of Labor Valor somewhere along the way? Post-1992 coat of arms on the second badge.
