    Two labor medals, both to Uzbeks, and linked together although they are not a group. And neither is numbered.

    The first a Medal for Valiant Labor [sic]:

    Rakhimberdy Temirov

    Interestingly, this medal has details written on the reverse of the ribbon that seem to relate to the order, or conditions, or the date of award. This seems strange and does not seem to match with anything I see in the award book. While these things are often "matched-up", it is hard to imagine how something this bizarre would be insinuated.

    Hi Ed,

    If I'm not wrong, this ribbon seems to be the one of the Medal for 20 Years of the Red Army... :rolleyes:

    Nice medals BTW... :beer:

    Cheers.

    Looks also like what the museums write sometimes...

    Interestingly, these are awarded both to Uzbeks and both by the same edict and on the same date. What was going on in Uzbekistan then?

    And, as always, great thanks to Rick for translation assistance! :beer:

    Very faded, but maybe . . . maybe. Much "bluer" on the reverse. I think this one was just worn a lot? He was very proud?

    Museum legends for such lowly medals? I guess in the USSR anything could happen?!
