    This is the event surrounding the awarding of an Order of Glory 2nd Class I had researched last year and translated. Here is the citation as appearing on the citation:

    While in the 132nd Rifle Division on the night of 31.10.44, he cleared a lane under heavy enemy fire in an enemy mine field and wire obstacles.

    A grenade was thrown in a section of wire, but due to the persistence of Private Abulev, the breach was maintained.

    He is deserving of the Order of Glory II Class.

    He was awarded the Order of Glory 2nd Class the following month. I am missing his Order of Glory 3rd class.

    Danny,

    Andreas (Alfed) has a book with the numbers of Glory Sets. I am sure, he can tell you the number his 3rd class.

    Hello Danny,

    I have a little red book about the recipants/number of all 3 classes Order of Glory. Mail me your number of Glory second class and I can look, if he has got the 1st and 3rd class Order. If he has no first class,

    I am not able to tell you the number of his 3rd class.

    regards

    Andreas

    If it is this book; Andreas is right : only the orders of cavaliers of the 3 classes are listed. Just tell us the SN of your 2nd Class and we will check. Who knows ? Maybe a dismantled group ? Even if I doubt...

    Cheers.

    Danny,

    Really sorry to say that SN 7008 for a 2nd Class is not in the book. The chances were low... but always worth trying.

    Sorry.

    Cheers.

    Ch.

    I figured that. Would love to get my hands on his 3rd class though.
