Comrade Valitov deserve order of great patriotic war 2 class to be issued! 22 december 1942 The 300 Rifle Divison belonged to 5th Shock Army. 5th Shock Army was formed from 27 Army in Jan 1942. Fought at Stalingrad Area and drove to Mius River in Dec 1942. 20 Nov 1942 Front Reserve RVGK (Reserve of the Supreme High Command) w/5 Shock Army Dez 1942 - Sadly, I wasn´t able to find him/his bio in podvignaroda. - I could also do not find the town named in the citation. Nothing about the Bravery medal. In the citation is said: No other awards. http://soviet-awards.com/forum/sovie...ravery-53.html So, the stroy may be true or not: (I bought this two medals (Bravery medal and OPW 2nd class) from a retired police officer. He said that he got them from a co-worker whose father had died. Supposedly he exchanged this two medals during the war with a prisoner for food) best regards Andreas Last edited by Alfred; 10-14-2012 at 02:35 PM. |

Andreas,
Could you please post a full scan of the two sides of the citation. The town is called "Нижне-Кумский" (Nizhne-Kumskiy). Here is a link to an article and another one to Russian Wikipedia about this tank battle. Marc Last edited by CtahhR; 10-14-2012 at 07:02 AM. |
