Re: Unresearchable Awards List
A little update on "unfound" award research to date.
600+ Medals "For Bravery" ALL FOUND 400+ Medals "For Combat Merits" c12 Not Found 400+ Red Stars c10 Not Found (All over 3.05 million) 300+ Glory III and IIs ALL FOUND Out of those "Not Found", 6 of them were from my own pile and I have new research options that may find them yet - something for the new year. Someone asked me to research a Medal "For Bravery" by serial for them this year, stating that they believed that it was awarded to a Czechoslovakian Partisan and had sent it to eight researchers before and got nowhere. Two months later they had all the paperwork confirming that it was indeed awarded to a Czechoslovakian national for Partisan activity - My man on the ground got digging! Doors continue to open and close and there is always a slightly different selection on offer. These "Not found" awards are also most likely Militia long service awards or in some cases high serial number awards that were never issued. NKGB and NKVD awards usually turn up now and are more often than not long service awards. Serial numbered Labour awards are also getting a very high success rate on hits too, the price is a bit higher but if you have to have that associated research, it has to be done.
