An award card dated 18 March 1946 lists his assignment in the 4 Ukrainian Front, 60 Army, 9 Independent Battalion and was subsequently overwritten in 1956 to reflect the awarding of an Order of Glory II Class by an Edict of the Supreme Soviet dated 31.3.56 for an Order of Glory III Class awarded by the 60 Army. An undated, abbreviated award card verifies the awarding of a Glory III Class by the 60 Army dated 20.05.45 was annulled and substituted for an Order of Glory II Class by Edict of the Supreme Soviet dated 31.3.56. Another abbreviated award card dated 4 April 1956 verifies the information stated immediately above. Last edited by Bill Garvy; 09-15-2012 at 04:38 PM. Reason: typo. . . |

An interesting correction for a glorious confusion. So often, these seem to have gone uncorrected.

Do i have this right... He was awarded an OG3 in 1944 for the action mentioned above. He then was awarded a second OG3 for another feat, then they realised their mistake and gave him his 2nd class 11 years later?
Cheers, Tom Oh nice award though! |
