Paul R Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 WOW! There is a Belgrade vet in there! Also a vet with the Victory over Japan AND Germany medals! Thanks for sharing these, Ed. I would love to be able to sit down with these men! The stories they could tell. I hope that someone took them down at some point.

Paul R Posted July 12, 2007 Posted July 12, 2007 But it is not fun unless it is bootlegged! Just joking.That is a good idea. I am sure that if the news service would have no problems in providing the sound bit, once the article is a couple days old.Paul
Gerd Becker Posted July 12, 2007 Posted July 12, 2007 Thanks for the links, Ed. Very interesting. Did anyone notice Comrade Leonid Grabanick?s OGPW 1st class Type 1 on his breast? Could be for Stalingrad, if he was there and he obviously was, as he wears the Stalingrad-Medal too.Again, many thanks, Ed
