That's the document that comes with the medal showing on one of the scans. I requested better scans of medal but meanwhile I would
like to know what you guys think of the doc itself n cause I haven't seen anything like it.

The document itself is probably real, however it has no correlation to the medal. From what I can see it is an annual officer evaluation, not an award citation.

Nexorcist,

The document, as Paul pointed out, has no relation whatsoever with the medal. It comes from the personal file of the serviceperson.

And even that's no guarantee.

There is absolutely no way to tie this evaluation to the medal unless it has the medal's serial number on it, which I highly doubt.

Similarly, sellers try to tie a photograph or partisan ID to a medal and maintain the two items go together. They don't and it's just a way to make more money.

Paul,

I didn't mean to imply that the doc and the medal wnet together.

What I meant to say is that this type of blank, once filled out, was added to a person service record.

Thank you very much guys. That explains a lot. I read the document but fail to see direct connection to medal as well. He offers the medal for a reasonable price (i would have got it with or without doc).
Thanks again.

Nexorcist,

I hope you based your decision to purchase this medal on somewhat better scans than what you showed here. If no, you may be in for a (bad...) surprize.

This always makes me skeptical. Hope you can post some pictures of the medal when you get it.
