Clues: 5 sided boards, and not a single WW2 campaign medal. Obviously a 3 November 1944 long service Red Star. Shall we say... 1945-46?One of the most neatly written reverses I have ever seen: 11 Republics stamp...Military "Order of the Patriotic War" Academyof Artillery Radiolocation" Radar flak... in 1945?
