Bob Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 I would also recommend the following book: http://www.collectrussia.com/DISPITEM.HTM?ITEM=13921 "Khalkin Gol, 1939" , by Uslyn Publishing House, Ulaan Baatar, 1989. In Mongolian. Excellent photo documentary on this key battle against the Japanese, immediately preceding WW 2. Shows great number of pictures of Russian and Mongolian servicemen with close-up details of uniforms and awards, also contains color maps and recent photos of the battlefield. Shows among other things photos of all recipients of the Title of Hero of the Soviet Union and Title of Hero of Mongolia who received the title for the Khalkin Gol Battle. Superb reference for pre/early WW2 Soviet uniforms and gear. Scarce and out of print. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
