Good point, I hadn't considered that. Sorry, I was presumptuous to state my hypothesis so conclusively.
I still find the handwriting and the fact that the BoH was a KGB award (if not for KGB activities, than at least to a Georgian, non-WWII-vet member) to be interesting coincidences, though.
My other question is when did he become a colonel?
Maybe I'm overthinking this?
