FRE_A_K Posted March 16 Posted March 16 At least, as far as I know, Professor Arvi Kivimaa has received all the medals in the picture. WIKIPEDIA He received the Cross of Liberty (4 th class, Winter War) for civil merits on June 21, 1941. He was entitled to wear the clasp "KOTIJOUKOT" on his commemorative medal. It is not uncommon for a clasp to be missing. I'm not sure about the other commemorative medal, but he very likely received that as well. It's hard to say without more detailed research if it's him... 1
