Oh, what year again Andrei Nikolajevits was released from the ЦКБ-29? All of that time was he allowed to keep his old 30s awards or they were returned after the release???

I am just in the middle of reading Leonid Kerber's notes regards their work during the war in the "šaraga" (well known project 103 and Tu-4 were made). What a fascinating story of the life!

[JapanX]

Of course they returned him all awards!

He was released in July 1941 (but completely rehabilitated only in 1955)

P.S. In case don't have electronic version of the book

That I mean.... in 1944 he wasn't fully released (of course everyone knew that he wasn't a spy anyway!).... не живой - не мёртвый... не добрый - не злой... не рыба не мясо (кости динозавра )...

Thanks for a look at these rare orders and photos of their recipients. Don't think I'll be adding any of these to my collection any time soon.
