    Sergey Georgiyevich Gorshkov wearing one of his two Partisan Stars 1st class.

    His daughter donated all of his awards to a Russian museum among which are his Partisan Stars. If I'm not mistaken one is a Mondvor with a screwplate and another one is an IKOM one with a double needle.9.thumb.jpg.4ac3360087167c074df89953f6bb5ce9.jpg

    This is really impressive! Two 1st and one 2nd class.

    I've seen combinations of 1st+2nd and 2nd+3rd Partisan Stars but I've never seen anyone with all 3 classes. I'm not even sure if there was anyone.

    True. The only two Soviet made People's Liberations I saw were Kidrič's and Tito's. Here's the painting of Tito wearing that order. Unfortunately I couldn't find the photo although I've seen it many times on the internet. I better save it in my album the next time I see it. :) 

    He's also wearing a Soviet Order of Suvorov 1st class and an Order of People's Hero with a ribbon for the Yugoslav Flag. I guess the painter didn't do enough research. :D

    Don't mention it :beer:
    Enver Hoxha wearing People's Hero Order and Partisan Star 1st class (looks like Yugoslav is in the 2nd row).
    He was stripped of the People's Hero title after the Tito - Stalin split.
