Nice! I would love to have such a grouping someday. IT makes me wonder what is missing though(combat before his labor career) or Labor Victory medal. I am beyond envious. Congrats my friend.

I think we can quite happily presume that this is a long service grouping. With service starting in 1945. Coming of age or returning from war, more research may determine.

Three results for "субботин леонид васильевич" on podvignaroda, and they all seem to be gents who were born in Russia. Not that this means the same person couldn't work in the Ukraine after the war, just makes research that more interesting.

Thank you, Scott, a Bravery Medal and two Orders of the Patriotic War in 2nd Class, 1985 Jubilee Issue. Two entries notate the same birth year, 1925, the other 1926, conceivably the same person?
