    Medal is #957 in the People's Revolutionary Museum Illustrated Collection of badges book:

    awarded by the Anti-American and Support-Korea Committee of the PRC Railways.

    I am confused by the paperwork, which is clearly Soviet in origin, but written in Chinese inside. All I can make out from the texts on both is "39 Year" (???)

    Brother Wang(usairforce), it seems that you should explain for friends here when you posted pictures.

    It is the set of Medal of Anti US and Support North Korea of Chinese People's Voluntary Army Railway Branch. The paper is the award certificate. 39 is not for year, it is the division number. The awardee was a soldier of Regt 7, Div 39. The cover of this certificate is Lenin, Red Flag, etc.

    Hope this helpful

    Yours, Tang Si

    Yes indeed! :cheers: Does the word for a military "division" use the character for "year"and then another? The only "words" I have learned to read in Chinese are for day, month, year. :blush:

    Hi, Rick

    The script written by the regiment commander is so careless that the 'division' is like 'year'. In Chinese, year is '年', month is '月', day is '日', and division is '师'

    Thanks! :beer: My computer cannot "see" Chinese characters typed into text--only little empty boxes where characters are typed in.

    The same with Russian, but we have found a way to "trick" the computers into seeing Cyrillic HERE on the website.
