Dundua, Nodar Georgievich, Captain Medical Service, Balneotherapist

[CtahhR]

Here is the group to Major G. K. Dundua's son, Nodar. This set is possibly "complete" and came from a single outstanding source (we all know who - Desantnik).

Nodar did not follow his father's footsteps into politics but went into Medicine. He became a Balneotherapist. Even though I'm from a very medical related family I've never experienced this branch of medicine but I wouldn't think this was a very political statement. I'd also think the number of Balneotherapists in demand in Tbilisi would be limited.

Firstly we have his Komsomol Booklet from February 1943, just after his 15th birthday. A time the Soviet Union was still in a dire situation. Berija's name pops up yet again. Anyone would think he was influential in Georgia or something? I'm sure father will have had some influence in this membership decision.

Second is his 1951 dated Diploma for graduating as a Medical Doctor. I'm not sure which Badge should go with this so I may or may not have it in the collection. I know some of the kind and informed folks out there can help.

Thirdly is a 1953 document stating that he did excellent in his specialisation subject, Balneotherapy.
