Badge "X Years Of Service To The Nation". - deValcourt - 10-10-2009
The first badge I think I ever owned (outside of a USMC hat bagde) was the XX year version. Then over XX years later, I found the X along with the ID booklet. I have always loved the 20 year badge and wore it on a beret for about a decade. I don't speak or read Polish (anymore than say Czech or Hungarian) so if anyone can help out with the translation, I would appreciate it.
First, the X.

And finally, the booklet for the 10 year service badge - here is where I could use a hand with translation. I get the gist of it since it seems to follow the same basic pattern as the Soviet award booklets, but exact meaning is beyond me.:confused:
(I noticed that during the resizing process, the quality of the scans greatly deteriorated so I hope everyone can still make out the words.:()
