"Guess who ?" quiz - Page 9

Dolf · 09-26-2005, 09:34 PM

Hi,

I have an easy one to restart this thread.

Who is he?

Here is a pic of a guy with the same kind of uniform and probably a few copies/replicas of the real Awards.

WOW!!!

Zhukov.

Rusty.

Rusty,

I forgot to mention this was better suited for the novice...

Too easy for the experts...

Anyway, you're next posting a question now

PS: He really had two Orders of Victory?!... Two?...
I thought only Stalin had that much!

Or let me try this other pic.
It seems there are two Marshals here.

Who are they?...

Dolf

PS: The picture was taken on June, 24, 1945

I'd say Meretskov on the left...

Hi Seb,

Besides the fact this is my Post #10000 on the Forum... Wow, congratulations to myself...

I do not know exactly which one is Marshal of Soviet Union Meretskov K.A. but in fact the site where I found these pics says he is one of the two Marshals on this picture. So I guess you're most probably right. Bravo!

Anyway, stil one more Marshal to identify.
To make it easier, the site says this other guy was a Marshal of Aircraft (sorry for the poor online translation

) . Does it help?

Best,

Dolf

Kozhedub?
Just guessing....

Dolf · 09-27-2005, 07:58 AM

Not the info I have...

Keep trying...

Then Skripko maybe?

hello, Meretskov was a little chubby, and his tunics shows very well the oak leaves on the cuffs.
On his left is an aviation marshall, visible to the clear colour of its cuffs, guessing the blue velvet used on this jacket.

Bravo Al-muell!

It is indeed Aviation Marshal N.S. Skripko!

I wonder how you guys know so much about this, I guess it has to do with the collecting of uniforms and watching their photos again and again, right?

So I guess you and Seb and Rusty (for the previous reply) are the next ones to post here the next "Guess Who" question, guys.

Let's keep this funny thread alive, is that ok?

Thanks.

Best,

Dolf
