Mondvor Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 Rotating-tool numbered Red Stars were produced since 1968. But even later - in 70th and 80th - there were still a lot of unissued Red Stars with hand-engraved numberes. And some of them were issued for Afgan War. For example Red Star # 3647782 was issued to Aleksandr Vladimirovich Gaas in according with Ukaz of Supreme Soviet Presidium from May 17, 1984 for actions in Afganistan. Majority of Afgan Red Stars were rotating-tool, but some of them were had-engraved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
