Re: Colonel Dimit'r Stojnev Stojkov.

Stojkov's Medal "For Military Merit" and Order "Red Banner" were probably long service awards.

Re: Colonel Dimit'r Stojnev Stojkov.

Stojkov's Order "People's Liberty" is a rather strange award although it could have been for 20 years service as he wasn't awarded any long service medals.

Re: Colonel Dimit'r Stojnev Stojkov.

Stojkov's Soviet Medal was probably awarded for cooperation with the Red Army as he did not serve during the Patriotic War.

Re: Colonel Dimit'r Stojnev Stojkov.

Stojkov's Order ''For Military Valour And Merit'' 1st Class will have been awarded for actual merit rather than a "Birthday" award.

Re: Colonel Dimit'r Stojnev Stojkov.

Stojkov's passport took him through Romania to Hungary.

Re: Colonel Dimit'r Stojnev Stojkov.

Stojkov joined the neo-tsarist Reservists Union around the time of its formation.
