Soviet WWII Medical Worker Badge

[Riley1965]

I've been searching for one of these for my Soviet Medical service collection for some time. Please tell me the proper name for it.

Excellence in medical service.

Te hammer and sickle is rather odd though!

Doc,

Igor has one of these on his site. It's a reproduction, but it looks great. It might fill a hole in your collection until the real thing comes along. $15

Doc,

Good for you if that is so. I personally would not want this one in my collection, though.

I am sorry for the response on the badge, thus far. I hope that it is proven to be OK. How much are these running for these days? I have wanted a medical badge for some time.

Marc,

Alexei says it's good and that's all I need to know. Fortunately it's in my collection and not yours as I am very pleased with it.

Paul,

I got this from a former Soviet Lt. of the Parachute Regiment. He said that they are going for $50-$75.

Thanks for the info! The price is not as bad as I feared! Now to find one!

I guess that the source for your badge cannot get much better than that! :cheers:
