Does anyone know anything about these?
Hi All Here are a couple of “To the Participants in the battle for… “ booklets. First is for Budapest the second for Vienna. What are these? Both of these ones came with a group that included the medals for Budapest and Vienna, but in both cases the medal award cards are a bit suspicious (see new thread “Suspicious award cards” in Fakes section), but most of the group has researched OK (it had a couple of additions but the genuine awards researched well). His service record shows that he was located on the 3rd Ukrainian Front from October 1944 - May 1945 so he could have been in both locations, I think. I am as sure as I can be that the two documents pictured here are genuine. Are these common items? I have never seen any others. Were they given out to participants in battles for all major cities, or only to ones where medals were issued. Anyone got any more pictures? All information gratefully received as ever. Thanks McL Vienna Budapest Last edited by CtahhR; 07-09-2014 at 06:05 AM. |
