Professional Union Of Workers Of Silk Industry Membership. - CtahhR - 10-19-2014
Here is a 7th January 1949 dated GSSR Professional Union Of Workers Of Silk Industry Membership to 1903 born Sergei Ivanovich Aizazov.
Going by the photograph Aizazov is a hardened veteran - he certainly doesn't look like someone to mess with. I have been looking for his citations for two years and they finally turned up - certainly not a silky character.

He was born in Kars, which was then in Russia but is now in Turkey and lived in Tbilisi.
Guards Senior Sergeant Aivazov was an Armoured Transport Driver in the Scout Regiment of the 14th Guards Tank Brigade. No doubt spending a lot of time at the spearhead of the advance westwards.
His Red Star was awarded for destroying 40 Fritz during heavy conditions.

His Medal "For Bravery" was downgraded from a Red Star as he only destroyed 15 German Soldiers and Officers under difficult conditions this time.
