RedMaestro Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 This is the research for ORB #109,668, the one I thought was mine until I looked at the scan of the medal more closely. Oh well. I can't really understand any of the documents, but my guess is that it's a long service award. I was at least hoping to get an interesting citation. Please correct me if I am wrong about the long service part. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferdinand Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Well, at least it's to a high officer (a Major-General of Artillery), the commander of the artillery of the 3rd Guards Tank Corps!He was awarded two Orders of Lenin, four Red Banners and an OPW 1st Class.ORB #109668 was awarded to him (then still a Guards Colonel) on 4 July 1944 by the 3rd Belorussian Front.
