Re: New Soviet Collecting Reference - Order of Glory
I have found many examples of digital and anecdotal references to post-war non-catch up/non-wound awards of the Order Of Glory (in Russian), but I have not been able to cross reference them with actual archival records.
There was a list of awards for the border conflict with China, including names. I randomly selected three of the recipients to research them via the archive. I was unable to confirm anything. I would of course love to see any photographs of any original archival papers on any of these awards. Does the full cavalier book contain a comprehensive list of all of those awarded a trio of Orders Of Glory, even if they didn't get the 1st Class? (3x 3rd, 2x 3rd and a 2nd or a 3rd and 2x 2nd). As I've found a few cases whilst pottering through archives where an error halted a three time recipient getting the golden award. (Even found some bits to one Nikolaj Nikiforovich Kirichenko, Cavalier Of 3 Orders Of Glory.) I am currently working on a project to translate every award of a particular regiment into English, no matter how comprehensive I wish it to be I know for certain it will most likely never be. When looking for awards it is easy to find awards if awarded by Prikaz at the Regimental or Divisional level but it becomes tougher at the Army or Front level and harder still at the Ukaz level. Also these are a lot easier when looking at wartime awards, not so much when they have a new post-war life and are awarded later for wounds that were received in action in the regiment. The same could be the case for many triple glory recipients, all that harder to find when one is a considerably later wound award, which would be unable to take into consideration the recipient's not yet issued catch-up awards that they are unaware of. Then again, who said this was easy?
