Here is what Podvignaroda.ru has to say about her or her namesake (Seeing this is a Stalingrad born Woman and most of the above documents were issued by Zhitomir in Ukraine)

9th May is Victory Day - most likely to bump into the representatives of the local veterans committee and be issued with what one is entitled to.

I take it there were no other awards for her? From what you post it appears she was born in 1924. Either way, thank you for posting on the existence/issuance her 1985 Jubilee Issue Order of the Great Patriotic War. If I had the Order or the document this group might be just a little more complete. It is like holding someone's life in your hands, or pieces of it anyway, reverently and respectfully.

If she were born in 1924, she would have been 61 in 1985, and 64 in 1988 when she received her 70th Anniversary of the Soviet Armed Forces Jubilee Medal and document pictured above. Thank you for your comments, gentlemen.

VE Day is 8th May in "Western Europe", The Americas and all (current and) former British, French, Belgian and Dutch colonies (Basically all non-Soviet/Warsaw Pact Allies).
Victory Day is 9th May in former Warsaw Pact nations. At the time of German surrender it was gone midnight in Moscow and the Soviet Union was not yet at war with the Greater Japanese Empire so there was no VE-VJ distinction.
VJ-VP Day is commemorated by various nations on various dates between 15th August and 2nd September. 15th August in Britain and Korea, 2nd September in the Soviet Union and USA.

Certainly far more complicated than 11th Hour 11th Day 11th Month.

No other awards to anyone of her name.
