Books of Honour

[Al-muell]

I have discovered an interesting source of information on the polish awardees - the books of honour. Untill recently, I thought that only "Honorary Book of Soldiers' Deeds" existed, but I came across a diploma congratulating an entry to the Civil Defense book of Honour and started to look for that particular book. Haven't found it so far, but on my search I have discovered that many others existed - probably for Each ministry.
I will publish the name lists from every aquired book in the "awardees database" thread.
So far, the most interesting seems to be "Book of Honour of the distinguished for the mining and energy industry". It has information on each year's:
Awarded with "Distinguished Miner" title;
Awarded with "Distinguished Energetician" title;
Awarded with "Distinguished teacher" title, butonly in relation to the minining and energy industry schools;
Institutions of the ministery awarded with state orders;
People with exceptional merits for the industry, honoured with an entry in the book.

The photographs of the people are of low quality, but some are amazing - especially those of some highly-decorated miners in their parade uniforms.
