marsino,

Here you go. The first image is another triple Otlichnik awardee - Machine Gunner, Sniper and Recon.

The second image is that of a double Otlichnik awardee - both for Communications. Like the triple Tanker seen in post # 1 above, I don't know the basis for multiple awards of the same Otllichnik qualification badge.

It will get even stranger in the following post.

Gents,

Sergeant Major V. Kiselyev - awarded seven Tank Otlichnik badges and Sergeant Major A. Matveyev - awarded nine Otlichnik badges. Unfortunately, we don't know what Matveyev's badges were for. Matveyev is seen at a Soviet All Army gathering of Otlichnik awardees. The Sergeant Major standing to Matveyev's left also has a good number of Otlichnik badges.

Slava,

Great series of pictures. Since you seem to have details about these individuals, could you please provide the serial numbers of their awards, especially of their 1st class.

Guys,

His group was once for sell on that NJ seller's site for the "then reasonable" amount of $175,000 :cool:

WARNING FLAG UP! The crown on the Bulgarian Order "For Military Merit" 4th Class looks as out of place in the grouping as much as if his "Victory Over Germany" Medal had a picture of Mao on it. The Crown is not in any of the pictures and for some reason the Order has inherited an Order "For Civil Merit" ribbon too.... Something rather fishy going on there... It is possible that some of the unnumbered items in the group may not be the pieces originally handed out. It doesn't seem very likely to me that People's Republic Of Bulgaria would be handing him out an Order with the "forbidden" insignia. A Wreath I could imagine but not the crown.........

Marc,

Unfortunately, I do not have that level of detail in these cases.

Gents,

When Grandma says "Eat your kasha", you better listen. HSL P.N. Kovrova knows what's good for you.
