Ed_Haynes Posted September 11, 2005 Author Share Posted September 11, 2005 And it is extremely nice to be able to share things with appreciative e-friends. (Some how, my wife doesn't understand me . . . and the medal-friends in my custody . . . !) And we do have the duty to keep the memory of the recipients of these medals alive.

NavyFCO Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 Ed-Terrific group! I remember seeing it on the table before you bought it. Had I only known then what was under the table paperwork wise, I would have bought it in a heartbeat. Ah well... Win some, lose some! Personally, I think this is one of the best Soviet groups out in collector's hands.Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Rick Research Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Well, according to post #32 he was actually POLISH (question 3), spoke Russian and Polish (question 4) and had served 1917 in the old tsarist army (question 12) but I'm having trouble with the scan fuzz. A little closer but sharper like scan #34 would help.Joined the Red Army in 1st Vitebsk Regiment 3 June 1918....Major II/3614. (V?) 36 Commander 16rg Mechanized RegimentIV/37 ranked as a Colonel16/8/38 "to the reserve" (gloss gloss wallpaper whitewash)but back 29.5.39...

Ed_Haynes Posted November 1, 2005 Author Share Posted November 1, 2005 Let me see what I can do. In between the quality of the original Xeroxes and the size limits for scans, I am not sure how much I can do. Since this may be of some interest, beyond my group, let me try. I think this set of documents may duplicate information and do better: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
