Guest Rick Research Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Wow!!!! That is waaaay off recommendation. It has got to be personal preferential treatment because he was a commissar known to the headquarters commanders. (That has always helped in EVERY army. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Rick Research Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 Did you get his military service records from the Archive, or are these from his own personal copies?Now there was a hard working, hard fought FRONT LINE career! Here again we see TWO initial award Red Banners. He should have received a "2" for his 1956 long service one, but he got another first award type.

Guest Darrell Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 (edited) Always nice to see those distinguishing features on the medals that "confirm" it was one the recipient received and wore (in period photos) In this case the enamel chipped off the Red Star.

ilja559 Posted September 11, 2008 Author Share Posted September 11, 2008 I ordered documents from archive in Podolsk.For me it would be certainly more pleasant, if to the grandfather have given out "Red Banner" "2". :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 I think he would be horrified at what prices these are going for today, after what his salary was for years then. :speechless: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
