Hi JC

This person got a 1921 Partisan badge. They should not be so commonly awarded?

True, about 400 or so were issued but no list of recipients just yet..... I wish this info was available....

I've got three that I'd love to ID!!

Hi JC

Anyway, thank you...

Right now, getting one with the document is the only hope. While I doubt if rolls will emerge anytime soon, we can always hope.

I am working on an article for JOMSA on this one and Battushig is seeking more information, when the current chaos in Ulanbaatar grants him the time.

Not exactly one of "our sort", but here is Navaannzrg, one of the Mongolian emissaries to St. Petersburg before the revolution. While many of those on this delegation got Tasarist awards (giving them the idea for the Order of the Vajra), he is wearing a Chinese Imperial award here.

Another of that generation, Damdinbazar, also honored by the Manchus.

Back on track, a well-decorated Upambayaryn Gombojav.

Slightly but a Soviet recipient of an Order of Military Merit. But an ADMIRAL???

Hi Ed

Well seen: a Military merit for a Admiral ! Good catch !

:Cat-Scratch: Hey Ed! You never heard of the Gobi Submarine Flotilla?!

Note 3rd from last on his top row of medals he is also wearing the protection of the state frontiers border guards medal.

Border guard submarines in the desert.

Sure.

A few obvious ones and a few that are harder to make out....

Any thoughts on this one???

Honored Employee of State Security Comrade Taya wearing the Honorary Badge of the Ministry of Interior along with the Order of the Red Banner of Military Valor. The photo shows that Comrade Taya, unlike his many other colleagues, did not change his older type badge and order with later type ones. The photo taken in late 1970s.
