Very nice!!!!!!!!! To a General Major of Artillery! He was fairly well decorated as well... 4x Red Banners, the Kutuzov 2nd Class and a Red Star! (Figure that two RB and the RS were long service - he still earned two RBs and the Kutuzov! NICE!) I can't wait to see the rest of the research!

I was curious why he didn't get a Lenin, and then at second look at the AC, it's shoved in at the very top! Nice!

Is it possible to post good images of this Red Banner? Especially the area with a screwpost.

[order_of_victory]

Hi Mondvor,

Unfortunatly at the moment I dont have a camera so I cant get any better pic's, but I will see if I can borrow one

Please CROP the research pages so that they fill up all that wasted white space. It's too hard for me to read the small, light, and tiny.

Hi Mondvor,

Order of Victory

That's OK! Thanks

[order_of_victory]

Hi Rick,

Unfortunatly not I cant, I can get it cropped and get it bigger but it's to big for the forum

Back to the drawing board

Order of Victory

[Paul R]

I can hardly wait for the results!!!

[Mondvor]

Order of Victory, in the award card it looks like the first Red Banner has s/n 35411. Maybe it is just my wrong impression because of not very sharp image. Can you tell what is in the document - 35411 or 36411?

Thanks!

[NavyFCO]

Order of Victory... If you'd like, you can e-mail me the photos and I will size them and post them up for you.

Dave

[order_of_victory]

Mondvor, the first order is the one I own number 36411

Unfortunately, on the images of the order that you posted earlier serial number is also invisible. That's why I asked. Thanks for the answer.

[order_of_victory]

Hi MONDVOR,

I will try and rectifie the imigages this weekend

Order of Victory

[NavyFCO]

Here are some improved images of the AC. Front:

And the reverse. In this scan, you can see that the number is a slightly square "6"... a little worse copy and you may well think it's a "5" though!

Wow tahanks Gerd

You spotted one I did not see, every time I look at I see another award

I agree withyou on the dates

I was just asking the researcher about researching his Kutuzov and he says it would no be particulary intresting

Order

[Gerd Becker]

Your screwback ORB, the Red Star, the ORB 2nd award and the Kutuzov were awarded for bravery. Only the Lenin (25 years) and the last two Red Banner(20 and 30 years) are Long-Service awards.

I don?t know, why the researcher think, the Kutuzov won?t be interesting. But he has a lot of experience, so i am inclined to trust his judgement. Maybe someone else can clear up this point.

Thats a really nice screwback ORB with great research Congrats
