OK, I would also have a second opinion, as it was officially awarded by the Supreme Soviet. No matter how we twist it, it is written black on white on the award diploma.
Anyway, let's keep digging: here is an honor folder (Почённая папка) awarded to Sergey Kirov by the Revolutionary Military Council of the Baltic Sea Navy Forces, featuring (once more...) an Order of the Red Banner of the RSFSR (Орден Красного Знамени РСФСР). (original award in post 23)
1+1+1+1+1 = 5 Points
PS: do I have to show the ORB in each post to get credit, or can I simply refer to it like I did above?

This one may be a bit stretching it:

Only photographs or information retained within the post will receive any points - to stop any users from using other posts to increase their own post point count.
Since the forum also stop users from posting the exact same picture twice it stops the same photograph from earning repetitive points.
Bring on the NEW pictures! We all enjoy them........

OK, so, it sounds like I'm going to give you some extra work. I'll edit my posts and add pics where I indicated links.
So, I updated posts 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 38, 39 and 49 :cheers
That is very reasonable. It's a good job I learnt how to count! I've certainly got some work on with this competition...... The more posts there are the more staring at the screen I have to do!
