Glory III,791431,Telephonist,Communication Platoon,557th Rifle Regiment,Catch-Up 1992

I've actually seen documents dated in the 90's for other medals, such as the 'Defense' medals. Where these came from were from vets that were never issued their medals originally, and later either they, or their family, claimed their medals. To my knowledge, there was never a 'jubilee' award of anything other than the GPW. I've attached a scan of a Glory, issued in 1992. The awardee was transported to hospital, and the award never caught up with him during the War. After his death, his sister claimed the award, and it was presented to her. (All that info was on the award card for the award.)
