Guys,

keep in mind that for a group like this one there's no fixed price. It's trusly unique one - being one of five holders of 3 Kutuzov 1st class orders and only one out of five in private hands. The rest are kept in the museums.

This is truly once in the lifetime opportunity if you can afford to drop that much on a single group. :cry:

Based on comparing photo images, my best guess is that the Marshall of Aviation seen standing next to MSU Meretskov in the Karelian Front Victory Parade formation on Red Square (see the photo in the book "Parad Pobedy") is either Marshal of Aviation S. A. Khudyakov or N.S. Skripko

If you are reffering to this one then next to Meretskov is indeed Skripko.

Rank had nothing to do with administrative duties. One's job defibned the duties and rank was seperate. For example there were lieutenant-colonels, colonels, magor-generals and lietenant-generals serving as Divisional Commander (even majors for brief periods).

Engineering Marshal Vorobyev was head of red army engineers and deputy minister of defence.

Signals marshal Peresypkin was head of red army signals, deputy minister of defence and minister of communications.

Tank Marshal Rotmistrov was never (during the war) head of tank forces or a deputy defence minister.
