Nice badge, slightly different than the main types of vet badges. The suspension has a glued gemstone (Уральский самоцвет). There are a few different vet badges with a gemstone suspension, another one being the 22nd army badge. The gemstone is a nice allegory of "fighting to the death" and all those great Soviet stone monuments to WW2.
