One idea on the 30th anniversary of Soviet Army and Navy is that it has the pic of Stalin and hence he may have chosen not to wear it. As for the later AF awards, could be he chose just to wear the most recent. Even though he had been in the army, perhaps he did not identify himself with the armed forces and found the 1968 awards not necessary to wear when a, from his point of view as WW2 veteran, more relevant award had been issued in 1975. As for the campaign medal - I have no clue. Also, this is just my fantasies :)
