Glory III,471225,Gun Aimer,297th Zenit Artillery Regiment,Crimea
This Order and research just in to the growing Glory collection:D
Awarded to Corporal Anatoly Borisov, crew member, the 4th battery, the 297 Anti-Aircraft Artillery Regiment. "On 13 April 1944, in the combats for the Crimea during the close combat, Borisov destroyed 9 enemy soldiers with his personal weapon...." I'm sure there is more to the story here, so I will look further into it;) Enjoy:thumbsup Brendan

The question is where can you find that it was given by 1 Belorussian Front? Is that who the unit is attached to:confused: Brendan

Actually, the Soviet Order of Battle states the 18 Air Defense Artillery Division was attached to the 1 Belorusian Front at the end of the war. |
