Re: Red Star,2856914
Somber example of a high-number, post-war awarding for wounds. Judging by the s/n of the BM and the award authorization date, it too is a catch-up awarding which may be aluded to in the annotation on the back of the award card "second awarding authorized".

Medal Bar with Bravery Medal, #3526623, awarded February 9th, 1944, his Medal for Victory over Germany, awarded May 9th, 1945, and his 20th Anniversary Medal for Victory over Germany.
Note the use of uniform material on the bar, and the safety pin mounting, which is a nice home-spun touch. . . Last edited by Bill Garvy; 12-05-2013 at 09:52 AM. |
