Nice. Matching numbers on the Virgin Land medal/document?
It is especially satisfying to see the "trickle toward completeness" with this group. |

Unfortunately the majority of what trickles down is without documentation, but I'm still hoping there'll be more coming... incl. maybe some higher end items which I can match with award documents in my possession. First up next though is something documented from DPRK which will provide some room for speculation once it's in my hands and I share it.:thumbsup |

The trickle down continues!:thumbsup
Let's see what we have... Red leather covered doc for a Mongolian badge for the Best employee of the MPR Agricultural sector. Then a brown DPRK doc... let's see what's inside! |

Re: Lieutenant General Jambyn JAMYAN (1916-2007)
And here the interior of the DPRK doc... it is a document awarded to Jamyan and there is a brief handwritten note in Mongolian on the first page of the booklet. It is the note written by the same person (most probably Jamyan himself) that can be observed on the other foreign award docs. The Mongolian note states "Document for the Order of the National Flag 1st Class of DPRK". Yes, a second booklet for the same award - and all the numbers, dates match!
:idea My suspicion is that this booklet may be the original, that Jamyan lost it, had a new one re-issued (with pic) and then found this one again. But that is just a theory. That's all for now, still hoping for more to come my away! |

Re: Lieutenant General Jambyn JAMYAN (1916-2007)
A Mongolian forum friend noticed Jamyan in a youtube video :wow
It is a documentary on a former Mongolian Ambassador to DPRK. Jamyan is among the Mongolian delegates who participated in the 13th World Youth Festival taking place in DRPK in 1988. I managed to find Jamyan at 12:35 as the heads of the Mongolian delegation are getting off the plane and Jamyan is in the background in his uniform. He should be somewhere else in the video as well, as the heads of the delegation walk to a Mongolian camp. "Жанчивдоржийн Ломбо" баримтат кино 1 - YouTube Just thought I'd share - all little bits make the Jamyan story richer and richer:) |

Re: Lieutenant General Jambyn JAMYAN (1916-2007)
Yihaa! The mailman just arrived with a very heavy package!
Some very interesting additions will be added here this evening: - 6 of Jamyans orders (six!!!) - 20 documents - 3 passports - and an additional item which I guess could be considered an executive "desk toy" :thumbsup |

Re: Lieutenant General Jambyn JAMYAN (1916-2007)
So, here we go:
2 polar stars: 1172 awarded in 1935 (as per the doc in my possession) and 1393 (I suspect this is the one for which I have booklet which indicates a polar star being awarded in 1951 but not giving the number). Jamyan was also awarded a third polar star (nr 17340, in 1975) but I do not have this one. The screw plate of the 1393 has the imprint of a soviet medal. 4 red banner of labor valor all corresponding with entries in booklets in my possession: 1915 awarded in 1961, 4206 awarded in 1971, 4354 awarded in 1974 and 5285 awarded in 1986. Undoubtedly some of which for length of service. Interesting to note is that the red banner nr 1915 which is the screwback ALSO has a screwplate with imprint of a soviet medal. So… Jamyan was awarded with more orders than can be seen on the main pic I posted early in this thread. Imagine translating it to Soviet references: a general awarded a Hero of Labor, who is also a labor order cavalier + a fourth labor order, and then has for arguments sake 3 red banner orders (i.e. polar stars). The volume of awards Jamyan has received is impressive! I just keep hoping that one day I’ll manage to get one (or more) of the three SB’s he was awarded! Yes, in Soviet terms he also received 3 orders of Lenin! Last edited by CtahhR; 05-04-2012 at 01:46 PM. |
