Okay, maybe I'm wrong on this, but it's not necessarily a fake doc. You'd think it should be an unnumbered medal, but who knows what they had at that time in that voenkomat or when this guy turned in his temp certificate, etc. I guess what I'm saying is that I'm not so sure it's a fake doc, so I'm waiting to see what Alexei, et. al. say. I'm cautiously poking my head over the wall as the eternal optimist and saying it's good.
In a similar situation, (I'd need to dig to find it for scanning), I've got a 3.4mil BM with a booklet dated November 1950.
That number (3.5mil) is probably a catch-up, so you have no way of knowing if it's from '44 without research. As a catch-up, it could be from any of the years of the war.
