Guest Rick Research Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 I think when the year is written out with 4 digits, that is our/Soviet year, but if it's written two digits that's Mongolian Republic years.#s 62-66 for Khaltarkhuu Dulam is a "1955" type Book, but with RETROACTIVE entries for his 1939 award first "booked" in 1941. I think.#s 67-72 to Avir(mi?)dshii Dagva is a "1950" type book issued in 1950, with his '40s on awards. Nice enamel ribbon bar, too. Looks like a RETIRED military person from lack of shoulder boards in the photo--if they followed Soviet practice.#81 on for house proud Dashdavaa Zhamtsyn is back to "Republic" years. Or not.Maybe.I don't see any CONSISTENCY to it, except within each Book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Haynes Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 I think you are probably right Rick, the more I think about it, but need to bounce this off friends in The Old Country.But if our theory is right, then the numbers make even less sense.

fjcp Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 (edited) Great Documents Ed.Looking forward to the translation!This one is a little off topic, but i thought it might be of some interest.It's just a fun little Document awarded to a Mongolian.Rick, I saw you just got a group with one of these, would it be unusual for it to have been awarded to a foreigner?Thanks.JC Edited January 26, 2007 by fjcp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vatjan Posted January 27, 2007 Author Share Posted January 27, 2007 And the awards:Medal of Combat, #6094, 22 July 1936 (=1956?)Medal of Combat, #3561, 5 Jully 195640 Years MPR, #119, 7 September 1961I am confused.Ed, although the numbers are still akward, 36 would be 1946 and not 1956, since they started counting from 1911 as being year 1Jan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
