Ataman Bulak-Bulahovich's Cross Of The Brave

[desantnik]

I had a book on White Movement awards and don't remember the name of this. I don't believe it to be authentic, but it is nicely made.

Anyone help with the name and/or is interested in taking this off my hands?

Paul,

Wouldn't that be the Kornilov's St George award?
I'd be interested in getting that off you. Please let me know what could be of interest.

A white metal cross in the St.-George style, covered with white or black enamel (also encountered without enamel). Dimensions 35 x 35 mm. In the middle of the cross is a stamped, round medallion of oxidized silver, on which are depicted: above a crossed sword and torch – a death's head. The medallion is surrounded by a laurel wreath, intertwined below with a ribbon. The reverse is smooth. It was worn on a black 38mm ribbon with two green edges along the sides of the ribbon, each being 55 mm.
