Here's an interesting document awarded for a Military Merit medal. I saw that Tal posted up a similar document for a "For Valor" medal. I don't know why this fellow rated a document like this, but I do know (since this was a family-purchased group) that the guy was NKVD (a Captain) and spent his War in Moscow guarding communications lines in and out of the city. I believe this was his 10-year long service award, and possibly they awarded these spiffy little books during 'staged' presentations within the Kremlin (you know, bring in the soldiers from out in the field, present them with medals in front of the Stavka to make them 'feel good'. Or something like that...) Also interesting to note is that this is a mid-range six-digit award, yet it was awarded in February 1945!

Anyone know of a reason these were awarded vice the temporary certificates in the field, and the later red medal award books?
