TheMedal "For Battle Merit"(Russian:Медаль «За боевые заслуги») was a Soviet militarymedalawarded for "combataction resulting in a military success", "courageous defense of the stateborders", or "successful military and politicaltrainingand preparation".
It was created on October 17, 1938 by the decision of thePresidiumof theSupreme Soviet of the Soviet Union. Like theMedal "For Courage", its status was revised to prevent the medal from being given for years of service (a practice that was rampant in the USSR) rather than actual bravery during a battle. More than 5,210,000 medals were awarded between 1938 and 1991.
It is comes from Kharkiv, key city near Ukraine-Russia border now suffering from strong bombing attacks from russian invaders.I live in this city and now taking a part in defending Ukraine as a member of United Military Forces of Ukraine.
