I don't like the fact that the inks and handwriting are different for the awards above, then the dates below - not a deal killer, but wierd.
Then, when I checked the numbers on my data base, the decorations were from different fronts - 1 Ukrainian (or 2 Baltic since the # is on an award bloc "seam"), 1 Belorussian, and 2 Belorussian. Three of the awards were awarded by the 2 Belorussian, so some of these could, actually belong to one person. As I've said before, this wide array of fronts is a possibility, but not a high probability of being awarded to one person.
Finally, according to the booklet the recipient was earning awards in some capacity (soldier/officer?) as early as '43, then 15 years later in '58 he is still a captain. Not impossibile, but an awfully long time to only make it as high as captain.
