Bill Garvy Wrote:Another Defense of the Caucasus Medal Document, this one issued to Aleksey Grigor'yevich Ryabko on October 25th, 1944, Serial #I005883, and signed by a Hero of the Soviet Union. This much I can decipher, however for the unit designation/stamp (Commander of the 5th . . . Order of Kutuzov Brigade) and identity of the Colonel/Hero I need assistance, please. . .

Here's your man, Bill! Commander of the 5th Pontoon Bridge Brigade.

Here is a document for the Medal Victory over Germany issued to Lieutenant-Colonel Petr Nikiforovich Merenkov dated October 17th, 1945 by ____?____ , and signed by Major-General D. Mitryev, Serial #V0180877. Amongst the cursive Cyrillic, the illegible stamp, and the acronyms I am unable to determine the unit designation. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated, and thank you!

Начальник ДВ Курсов усовершенствования офицеров пехоты

генерал-Майор Дмитриев

DV Could be Dalnyevostochnikh, but I think it means something else.

Hi everyone,

A little help please :)

I have a case where someones position has been listed as "полномоченный" and then later "старший полномоченный" - Literal translation seems to be "plenipotentiary" and then obviously Senior Plenipotentiary

"a person, especially a diplomatic agent, invested with full power or authority to transact business on behalf of another."


BUT

If someone was in the Central Transport Commssion of the OGPU... or other organs of the GPU/NKVD/KGB/MVD... what would a good translation of this job title be?


Thanks!

Tom

I'd say a plenipotentiary is a good word here.
He was sent as a person to manage the comission's affairs in the area.

Cheers Kamil... What about this phrase.

There's no more to the sentence.

To me it looks like "Секретарь в/Прид. бюро"

So Secretary for the ??? Bureau?

It's a strange one.
