Tommy....this is the where I am at the moment. I've posted some images which should help. I welcome your opinions :thumbsup

I must be missing something.

The first image is a citation for a red banner to a major josef lukanovich?? K??nikov.

The second image is to a Ivana Mikhailovicha Bovkun.

What does anyone else think?

Im confused.

Hopefully the correct ones

Tom correctly transliterated the name in your order booklet as Ivan Maksimovich Bovkunov. The prikaz extract you posted lists an Ivan Mikhailovich Bovkun, so that's probably a different guy. If the last picture you posted in the inside of the same order booklet, then this may be your guy: http://www.podvignaroda.ru/?n=32073209
His Red Banner citation doesn't seem to be in the database.

Hi Auke

Using Google Translate his name comes back as Иван Максимович Бовкун
(Ivan Maksimovich Bovkunov). Nothing comes back from the database...but Иван Михайлович Бовкун (Ivan Mikhailovich Bovkun) returns the following attachment. I value your opinions....

Thanks for clearing it up Auke.

Hi Tommy...you don't agree with my last post?

The comparison pictures

Warsaw,

The name in the booklet states Ivan Maksimovich Bovkunov.

You have posted results in post 1015 for Ivan, Mikhailovich Bovkun

Searhing the name in the order booklet gives the reults I posted above (the results that you said weren't there). Changing the name to something different gives the results you found.

Perhaps there has been a clerical error somewhere.

If in doubt order the record card.

Tommy...ok. Then that's I'll have to do. Its confusing though :confused:
