Badge "Partisan Of Belarus".

[matteti]

Hello, I have seen this partisan badge (Belarus Partisan) and I was wondering what it was.

Was it the badge they were issuing to the Belarus Partisan when they were issued the green document (belarus partisan photo ID) with the red diagonal line on the cover? I have seen some documents from the 1970s-1980s with a stamp inside the doc saying the "badge was issued".

If it's not this badge, what is it and from which period?

Included are photo of the badge in question and a small pic of the document to which I refer.

Thanks.

Both items are genuine. The pin is very cheap, but this is what they are giving to the former Partisans in Belarus nowadays.

Those documents were issued in the 1960s and 70s to confirm participation in the war for ex-Partisans, and strictly speaking are not issue documents for this badge. You can see lots of ink stamps in them, like "Medal... issued", "War Participant ID issued", etc. Stamp "Badge issued" refers to this particular badge.

Thanks Alexei. That is what I wanted to know. :thumbsup

I already have such partizan booklet and also the smaller soviet booklet for a war participant that belonged to a former Belarus partizan and I wanted to obtain a badge to put together in a small display.
