Gents,
Guards Sergeant V. S. Ippolitova. She was a combat medic. Five, that's right, five Medals for Valor. She is on the left in the wartime image. As one of only 17 Red Army personnel awarded the Medal for Valor five times, she is in a league of her own.
She is truly a soldier's soldier as embodied in her decision to wear nothing but her five For Valor medals on her medal bar. None of those fluff anniversary medals for her. I like it.
Regards,
