Order Booklets

So I don't purchase another order book with fake entries....can you tie the order booklet to one of the men in the list? Opinions also invited on booklet

It may be none of them. All 4 of those awards most likely will be for long service.

Medal "For Combat Merits" for 10, Red Star for 15, Red Banner for 20 and Lenin for 25. Unlikely all 4 awarded between 1944 and 1946 but not impossible.

A quick scan of "Echoes Of War" - Paul Schmitt suggests dates ranging from 1945 - 56. Like you say....probably a LS awardee. Thanks for replying :thumbsup

Homchenko Vasily Yakovlevich, ( Хомченко Василий Яковлевич ).

[Bill Garvy]

[SIZE="3"]There are no less than three (3) entries for the name Хомченко Василий Яковлевич, the first born 1920, a Guards Lieutenant in the 144th Guards Rifle Regiment, the second born 1921, a Sergeant who previously had been awarded a Combat Service Medal (1943) and a Bravery Medal (1944), so a less likely contender, and the third born 1923, a Sergeant/Guards Sergeant. Here are each of the three citations from the archive.

The first is dated April 17th, 1945, a most likely contender, the second dated June 19th, 1944, and the third dated July 14th, 1948, which may drop him from contention. The number shown in your Order Book, 1484640, places his awarding most likely spring, 1945, in my opinion.

It is the first one. Awarded 20th April 1945. The booklet puts the award date to April 1945 (Benefits start the first day of the next month).

His Medal "For The Capture Of Budapest" and Victory are also listed.
