Snicker all you want. She's a HSL, not to mention a Lenin x3, and a lot more, to boot. I doubt she'd care what you think.
Plus, I'll bet she could still knock the snot out of more than half of us anyway. :)

Gents,

It's not all too often that you come across a Double Order of Ushakov 1st Class and Order of Kutuzov 1st Class awardee. Col Gen V. V. Yermanchenkov fits the bill.

What makes it even more unusual is that while the majority of his career was spent in the Soviet Naval Air Force, he is seen here in what appears to be a standard air force uniform.

M49 AF service uniform. Interestingly, he's also got an order of Suvorov to complete the collection.

If there is a more voluminous rack, I've never seen it. DHSU Guards Col Gen V.I. Popkov beats all comers.

96 awards there to begin with... If he got on the phone to the "awards committees" he could surpass Brezhnev...
