Photographs Of Recipients Of Soviet Awards/Service Personnel.

[Doug]

I found him in the Cavalier of the Order of Glory book - page 616. His name is Vasiliy Timofeevich Hristenko, Russian, Born in 1925, joined the party in 1945, joined the Red Army in 1943, and was demobilized in 1956. As you guys know, my interpreting is slower than paint drying but it looks like he in fact, received two 3rd classes (2/22/44 & 11/4/44) as well as a 2nd (1/24/45) and the 1st class (5/15/46). He was awarded the Hero of Labor in 1972. I can interpret this article by this weekend but hopefully, one of our Russian-speaking members can step in and bail me out.

All the best,

Doug
