Chuck In Oregon Posted March 2, 2006 Author Share Posted March 2, 2006 Impressive!!! I've never seen this arena of badges.Doc* * * * *Thanks, Doc. I know there are others out there in this category. I just haven't been able to find them. For instance, if there's a second-level version of the large hanger, I speculate that there must be one of the small hanger. However, I have never come across or even heard of one to date. This was such an important and huge area of defense that there must be a lot of badges. I keep looking because, well, that's what we do.Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 Award Booklet:[attachmentid=29294]unfortunately the splendid cover in no way compensates for the cheap newsprint type paper inside, faded away and browned [attachmentid=29296]God knows what Sergeant Ivkov's branch/orgnization insignia represent, because I've never found a match!!![attachmentid=29297]Front and back. NOT a match to the Award Booklet above. Note the serial number stamped on the screw nut:[attachmentid=29298][attachmentid=29299] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck In Oregon Posted March 3, 2006 Author Share Posted March 3, 2006 Nice booklet Rick. I haven't seen one of these yet. Very nice indeed.* * * * *It sure is, Rick. I congratulate you on that find. I have a modest Osoaviakhim collection of my own, including a few booklets, but like Stogieman I have never even seen one of that type.Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 September 2013 not to cross with your Georgian aviatrix, Chuck. Other than photos of these bages being worn in the 1930s, I have nothing. Still can't figure out what Sgt. Ivkov was--or when, since the ink is now illegible.2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
