Vasilj Stalin.
No wonder, check out the recipient.. (sorry if this is a repost)
For our non-Russian speaking friends, this is an award to "Colonel Stalin, Vasily Iosifovich," commander of the 32nd Guards Fighter (Aircraft) Aviation Regiment. The carefully worded citation is certainly full of praise--mostly describing the excellent preparation given to the regiment under the command of Stalin's son, and that the awardee participating in air battles himself, shooting down a FW-190. The original suggested award was another Red Banner (which Vasilly already had), but the corps commander has scratched out "Red Banner" and penciled in "Alexander Nevsky." :) George |
