You have seen it a few days ago, but here is my ORB for an Officer of the Medical Personal, awarded on 03. April 1944 to Valentin Akselevich Filenius, Lieutenant-Colonel of Medical Service and Commander of Evacuation Hospital 325 in Irkutsk during the war.http://gmic.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=10295Here is some info to the Unit, your Comrade Baturin served in:86th Tank BrigadeFormed February 1942 at Chelyabinsk in Urals Military District with:232nd Tank Battalion233rd Tank Battalioneach Battalion equipped with 7 KV?s, 10 T-34 and 10 T-6086th Motorized Rifle BattalionAntitank Battery (4x76mm cannon)Antiaircraft Battery (4 37mm guns)Im May 1942 the 86th Tank Brigade moved to Moscow Military District, where it was assigned to the 12th Tank Corps.

Ed_Haynes Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 Nice ones, Doc and Gerd! Let me just cross-reference here my single Glory 3 to First Sergeant of the Guards Alexandra Vasilyevna Grebenschchikova, Sanitary Instructor of motor rifle company, 1st Motor Rifle Battalion, 29th Guards Order of Bogdan Khemelnitsky 1st Degree Motor Rifle Brigade of Unech, The Guards Tank Ural-Lvov Voluntary Corps.Her recommendation:"When fighting against German invaders Guards First Sergeant Grebenschchikova was among the first to cross in the forging of the River Oder [ca. 22 Jan 1945] and under strong machine-gun and artillery fire rendered medical assistance to 75 wounded. She took 63 heavily wounded persons with their personal weapons away from the battlefield."The Guards First Sergeant Grebenschchikova deserves a government award, Order of the Red Banner."Downgraded (approved March 1945, awarded March 1990) to a Glory 3.See: http://gmic.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=2329 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christian Zulus Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 (edited) Dear Doc,great RS - congratulations .A "doctor 2nd rank" = Lt.-Col. ? At Baturins "Award Card" he is adressed as a major of the medical service ?Besides Baturin's first RS, which is a battle award, the combat medal, the other RS and RB are long-service-awards (10-15-20 years in service.Do you know, which rank - Maj.-Gen. ? - had comrade Baturin at the end of the 1950s, which seems to be the end of his military service in the Soviet Army?Dear Ed,the downgrading in your "Glory-case" had been strictly against the regulations and statutes .On 23rd of august 1941 comrade Stalin himself signed the Order No. 281, "Concerning the procedure for recommending combat medics and stretcher bearers for government awards":"The following recommendations are implemented to encourage the combat efforts of medics and stretcher bearers:.....................3. Recommend the awarding of the order of the "Red Banner" for each medic or stretcher bearer who carries 40 wounded with their rifles or light machine guns fromt the battlefield;"The 63 wounded in Grebenschchikova's case are even well above the mark of 40 in Stalin's Order No. 281 .Best regardsChristian Edited December 30, 2006 by Christian Zulus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riley1965 Posted December 30, 2006 Author Share Posted December 30, 2006 Christian,Thank You for your comments!! I wasn't aware of Stalin's Order # 281. As for Baturin's rank, this is all the information I have. I may request Service record. Doc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Rick Research Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 DEFINITELY worth researching Doc-- he was still active duty in 1954, so must have made it at least another rank up to Lieutenant Colonel. You never know until the results come back.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
