Good translation Paul ;) :thumbsup .
A fantasy medal for sure, and nothing I have seen before... Ch.

Christophe,
Actually, I seem to remember having seen one like this before, quite a few years ago. I'd say that, as Paul mentioned, it is some sort of support medal put out by the PCF (French Communist Party). Marc

Thanks to all for reply :)
It's quite possible, after IIWW many Polish miners came from France, maybe some of them were Soviet sypmpathics. One of my friends said that it could be medal from Normandie-Niemen unit, what do you think? Merry christmas Maciek P.S. Sorry for my english.

Snaewar,
I think that Normandie-Niemen is out of the question on this one. Marc
