Re: Where to find Soviet medals in La Havana (Cuba) ?
As far as I know, with a bit of luck you can find some cuban medals, badges and discarded FAR uniforms/headgear at flea markets now that some of the reforms are taking place, but unfortunately I´ve got no addresses to share with you. About soviet awards, I had one of my relatives look for them when they went there, but didn´t found any. You can find good quality cigars, rum and Che Guevara merchandising by the thousands for little cash, but awards and militaria are very scarce. Remember that markets are still not so that open, so a dealer may be the most difficult thing to find.
Hope you enjoy your trip to Cuba! Cubans are very friendly and will be willing to help you in any way (at least in my personal experience). If you have any problems with their spanish just let me know.
