Russian "VC"?
Art.With 100 members I'm sure somebody can help this Aussie plebe with this question...which Soviet award is closest to the Victoria Cross or the Medal of Honor?Would members agree that a Cavalier of the Order of Glory is the closest?Or am I right in thinking that the Russian system with its very specific conditions means no exact match is possible.My maths always were terrible but with around 10 million troops in the field the percentage that were honoured as Cavaliers is pretty tiny ...
