Re: Red Star,0179982,Anti-Aircraft Gunner, Ukrainian Front
Rather unusual that the citation mentions someone else getting a "kill". It also seems a little unusual that this was his only award. I wonder if the aforementioned Sergeant usually got the kills and awards?
I think the Ukrainians had a good idea in renaming the "Ефрейтор" rank to "Senior Soldier". The modern Estonian army now calls the rank Corporal although it would only be a Lance Corporal in Commonwealth forces. The rank is between "Soldier" and "Sergeant" ranks but it uses its own (borrowed from German) term rather than being a "junior" or "senior" anything.
