Indeed, close ups, close ups and more close ups!

What are the numbers on the Red star and OPW's?

Marc, forgive my ignorance. Are the award docs filled out to someone with the rank of Captain?

Does this line up with the rank of Senior Lieutenant mentioned in your post? (at least i think that's what Podpolkovnik means :o)

Any mention of this guy on Podvig??

Hi Tommy,

The numbers are in the award booklet (see page 1)

I think Podpolkovnik means lieutenant Colonel, not senior lieutenant
