The records for this chap seem to be a bit confused. The unseen record card translation states Red Star plus Medal "For Bravery" but "the site" states Red Star plus Patriotic War II.
Those desk jockeys cocking it up again?

There is a second record card for the OPW which I didnt post.
No sight of the bravery medal wrote up online though which is a shame.
I had the other day whose real name was
Ivan Sergeivich something or other
But when the clerk was writing up the citation for one of his awards it was written
Sergei Ivanovich something or other
Same guy but back to front

There certainly are some frustrating and amusing clerical errors out there. Sometimes with larger groups and less common names you can see a fine selection of errors. Having an obscure Viking name (7% of all people on the US Census of 2010 and the only one in PA) I've been subjected some extremely strange clerical errors myself. I suppose that is somewhat similar to Russian speakers having difficultly with names of other ethnicities and nationalities (and vis versa). When you invert a name it's probably time for a coffee.
