Latvian Orders reference book

Rick · 05-08-2002, 07:43 PM

Hi. Does anyone out there have any books referencing Orders and Medals and badges issued by Latvia 1918-1940? The only one I have seen which I have is "Decorations in the Republic of Latvia" by Kristine Ducmane.
Thank you.

Hi Rick and WELCOME

I don't have the book, but I think in Kutsenko's book "orders of the Soviet republics" you can find wat you looking for. PM Art or Eugene - they have the book.

Hi folks

Latvia! wow what a place. Riga, what a great city, the women, just call me human but they are fantastic.

I found time to get one medal

I agree ! I not only collect their old medals when they were independent of the Soviet Union but I took one of their fantastic girls and married her !

You lucky guys! In regards to Kutsenko's book, I see no reference to Latvian awards. I thought that there was a Latvian SSR. Might it be listed under one of these?..here is what I do have in this book..

Russian FSR
Azerbaijan SSR
Ukrainian SSR
Armenian SSR
Bukhara PSR
Khorezm PSSR
Georgian SSR
Byelorussian SSR
Uzbek SSR
Turkmenian SSR
Tadjik SSR
Trans-Caucasian SFSR
Tannu-Tuva PR
Abkhasian SSR
