Re: Guards Junior Sergeant Petr Andreevich Dovbysh, 389th Guards Artillery Regiment

Hello Bill,
I'm not 100% certain, but I believe the Hero of USSR who signed the documents is "Bukiya" rather than "Buklya". If that's the case, he might very well be Bukiya, Akakiy Konstantinovich (Букия, Акакий Константинович). On the photo, he is wearing a Guards badge and Lieutenant-Colonel shoulder's boards. During the war, he was in a self-propelled artillery unit; like your awardee.

More details and a pic of him at: Герой Советского Союза Букия Акакий Константинович :: Герои страны

I was wondering when that would turn up...
"The site" is brilliant for free research but it is also great at pointing out what is missing. Usually it's what's missing for me.
