Red Star,3651581,Rifleman,1134th Rifle Regiment,Lost Left Hand,1975
Here is Red Star #3651581 which was awarded in May 1974 after the loss of a left hand in combat.
Surprisingly the centre of the order has been polished fairly bald. The recipient must have found a way to hold it whilst polishing it with his right hand. It certainly adds to the quirkiness of the Order.

Re: Red Star,3651581,Rifleman,1134th Rifle Regiment,Lost Left Hand.
After doing a little research, the 1134th Rifle Regiment was under the 338th Rifle Division in the 33rd Army.
The date 17th August 1943 would coincide with the Second Battle Of Smolensk, specifically the Spas-Demensk Offensive Operation pushing towards Roslavl. The offensive of Gordov's 33rd Army was held off by Model's 9th Army.

Cheers!
I really like how tangible the injury is. We can all understand the injury and also how difficult it would be to find a solid long term vocation afterwards. Although it says "No left hand" after "Injured in shoulder" it doesn't really convey the full picture. It is quite obvious that losing a hand at the wrist would not be as debilitating as losing the entire arm from the shoulder. Certainly a very different Red Star than one awarded for 15 years administrative service. Just as I was considering framing this group of an Order and 4 Medals I found out it wasn't complete. The 338th Rifle Division saw very heavy losses on 17th August 1943 whilst participating in the Spas-Demensk Operation of the Battle Of Smolensk. Spas-Demensk was liberated on the 13th. An interesting note is that Roza Shanina would join the 338th the following year.
