Do you accumulate?

Do you accumilate some awards because you just like 'em?

I have a few Red Stars and OG3's...

I'm thinking of stopping once I hit 100 RedStars!
...then again, I don't want to stop!

I think it's one of the best...

I know one guy in Moscow who accumulated couple hundred of Red Stars. He just buys them for few dollars from alcoholics looking to get drunk.

It's sad when you think about this - all those soldiers commited some heroic deeds during the war and now the price of their awards is just one bottle of vodka.

I was making this photo for someone else, but I thought I'd post it just to tease you a little
