Yes, the breakthrough has happened but it is a very sensitive topic with permanent risk of set backs. See some other recent posts of mine on this forum.
Critical is having the award booklet (serial number + name + date of awarding) although, while much more difficult, it may be possible to also research based on serial number alone.
From what I understand:
- Research on Order of Sukh Baatar is possible (in particular screwbacks)
- Research on Order of Red Banner of Labor is possible for serial nr <500
- Others: unclear right now
What research then uncovers is still something to learn and may depend case by case (e.g. in some cases photographs and complete biographies are also possible).
Fingers crossed.
