Rather than going digital-analogue-digital you might be best off just sticking to digital - like this image directly from "the site".

Roschij was also awarded an OPW1'85.

This is a great example of the old style research. Once upon a time (and before "the site") it would cost great amounts to get an award researched (not mentioning time and all the secrecy) and now an award like this can be picked up for $10-$35 and researched for free. The times certainly have changed in favour of the collectors (with serious interest in the reason behind the awards).

Got to love the offbeat translations too.

Here is the location of Mar'janpol' in modern Belarus. Certainly a Bagration award.

Thanks for the "Digital" recommendation and map location.
