I can somewhat make out "Podp-k Mirkin" or Podpolkovnik Mirkin or Lt. Colonel Mirkin...

Let's wait for the non-flash scan...

Sorry for the quality.Two more pics.

The 3 first letters first row could also be " I I e R "

More when scanner is working.

Thanks for spoiling your eyes, Eric and Alexei !

Eric,

Do you think it could be "Prepodavatel' STU"? - STU Instructor Lt. Colonel Markin, Evg. Fiodorovitch.

thanks for the STU instructor!
Absolutely not common with kyrillic writing, and manners of handwriting and here even etched. The 2 lines of the first letter are deeply stroken down, the upper line is very lightly etched, an accidently scratch? The second letter an u, z or tsch? (german transscription by Duden) No idea whether it makes any sense. A bit ashamed to say I just know CTY has something to do with tanks. :rolleyes: German search engines say everything about CTY, but nothing fitting.
BTW: When rotating the pic 180 degrees, the serial no. is also changing ;)

I think CPTU in Russian is "Srednee Professionalno Tekhnicheskoe Ychlishche".

Guys help me translate this in English, I am not sure abot right translation.

Eric.

Alexei, I think you got it!!!

"Преподаватель СТУ Подп-к Миркин Евг. Федорович"

or (loosely translated in English)

STU Instructor Lt. Colonel Mirkin Evgeny Fedorovich

I am guessing that the guy had it inscribed in order to have it returned if ever lost...

Also, Ericlida, there is no "P" buddy. So it looks like:
СТУ = С... Танковое Училище or STU = S... Tankovoe Uchilische (I am not sure which city perhaps Saratov?)

Update *** Yes, it looks like we are referring to the Saratov Tank School
http://elosar.narod.ru/HTML/HIS/246.HTM (in Russian)

Thanks,

Eric aka yolkin

Guys,

I think it's also interesting to mention that as an instructor he wouldn't be entitled to this award. OGPW was awarded only for combat action, and in case of a tanker 2nd class was given for destroying not fewer than three enemy tanks.
