    Bulgarian Generals?


    Recommended Posts

    Hi all, I know this is probably a stupid question but I ask it anyway :rolleyes:

    Does anyone know or have any info about Bulgarian Generals during 1946-1990 ? I just bought another medal/order group to a GenLt and wonder if there is any way to find out more about him?

    His name was Toschkov Georgiev if I read right,

    I will post photos when it arrive.

    Nice partial group Christer. So many of these have been broken up, I'm happy to be able to get partials and i never stop looking for additional pieces to known names.

    I believe your last document is Bulgarian and the ink stamps look like MVR stamps.

    Can you post bigger scans please?

    Theodor? Petr? Anatoly? Can anyone help?

    Thanks, Rick

    The DKMS thing is International Youth Relay-Race "Memory".

    The last document is from the USSR. The ink stamp consists of the USSR State Emblem in the middle and in the circle Army Unit...number...

    It is certificate for 1st Class Specialist in the armed Forces of the USSR /at least I understand it this way from the document/. And that Class is given to the general by an army unit commander from the soviet Army - by order the Commander of Army Unit 42202, Colonel Gavrilov.
