Award Booklets
As I gradually bring together some information from friends in Kabul (some of whom would, in the Old Days, have been able to answer everything from records that seem to no longer exist), a few scraps of quick-refence value have emerged.
One is a quick and easy way (for those Dari-illiterates among us, like me) to distinguish order booklets from medal booklets. Look at the first word on the second row of text (remembering that the test flows from right-to-left). It will either say "Nishan" (the first example below, "Order") or "Medal" (the second example below, "Medal"). The fonts used may or may not be of help, for I believe there are different issues of these booklets, and the fonts used have more to do with time period that what is inside (this is being explored).
