Ironically, if they are real, the defense of Odessa and Sevastapol medals may be worth more than the rest of the uniform put together. My comfort with the uniform truly matching the medals and orders would actually hinge on the dagger. If it is a wartime date, it lends credibility to the whole thing. If it is messed with or has a 70's date, I would be afraid it was put together and would have reservations about the genuineness of the defense medals. At least the crest on the hilt looks right
