A 40th anniversary greeting from the Moldavian Regional Military Commissariat.

Patriotic War II #4744056 with quite a strange engraving - must have been Friday afternoon.

As the OPWII didn't come with the award document it could have been seen as an "add on" since he's not seen wearing any GPW commemoratives in 1982.

These two pieces of evidence seem to swing it though - the original case with his name and the award number on and his entry in "the site". Giving his birth date as 1924 in Odessa.

In 1990 Chisinau seemed it fit to send him the same 45th anniversary greeting twice.

Finally, his home town of Odessa also sent him a card.

Nope, no Friday afternoon or Monday morning to blame here, it happens to be a product of МЗЮ (Мстерский завод «Ювелир»), hence the less than usual handwriting.

PS: take this as a simple example of what "quality" can mean, as opposed to "quantity" :cool:
