A nice documented group, but with no additional information on who she was (though she seems to have been a "someone"?).

Documents, part 1

And the final document.

[medals73]

Just to check transliteration of her name.

[matteti]

Not sure if that is her, but a woman with same name was the sister of a soldier who died at sea on 12.08.44

Looking at her awards, my guess is that she was a deputy of some sort in KPSS.

Interesting. We may never know for sure.

Yes, and if you look at obd-memorial.ru you will find scan of the the actual (original) report on irrecoverable losses from the army unit in which he belongs and from where this quote was taken.

As far as labor groups go, this one remains a gnawing puzzle.

Lenin: There appears to be lots more ministry of agriculture awards?

�� �� online


OOR: More Ministry of Agriculture Awardings - Some specific to OoR to Moldovan SSR (Does this ring true with the name?

RBOL 521,176 same day as Ministry of Construction, Road and Municipal Engineering of the USSR

RBOL 723615 Many Ministry of Agriculture Awardings

BoH:More Ministry of Agriculture Awardings


This is just what i see on "the site" Maybe Ctahhr can help more? I may have this entirely wrong!

[CtahhR]

I believe it all looks towards a lifetime on the collective farm. I doubt at the "milkmaid" level either.

I wouldn't point the finger at the Moldavian SSR overly quick. Sounds like a Ukrainian name (yes they have Ukrainians in Moldova) but usually the larger award ukazs didn't bother going into specifics.

I'd go with a life working on the (very productive and quota meeting) farm.

Not completely unresearchable.
