I have noticed the demand manifesting itself in higher end pieces down to the more common orders. It seems that demand for the medals and badges has been less strong.

I admit that since the Mongolian ODM scene is pretty niche....so there is limited stock out there.]]>

To set the example, my teenage daughter has heard way more of me than she intended and I have already composed an article on "red cover" Victory over Germany medal documents I have been intending to tackle for a while but never seemed to find the time (if you'd like to preview or think you have something to add, send me a PM).

As a financial incentive and stimulus to restart the economy and my devastated retirement coffers , I will reopen my offer to encourage articles on Soviet militaria and medals collecting. For every article published between now and the end of the year I will offer $50 credit or if you prefer, $20 cash via Paypal. I will even offer to edit, proofread, or peer review if you would like. I'd like everyone to take advantage, but just to keep me from going under I'll have to limit it to $250 total - first come, first serve.

Stay motivated and healthy! (and my wife reminds everyone to enforce social distancing).]]>

It's been stewing for a long time, but my 2017 project is a second volume of Soviet WWII veteran badges as a continuation to the first volume published in 2008. At present I have more than 500 new badges and a local friend has lined up a photographer since I don't have the time myself.

I'll also take any information you have on related topic badge documents. As a general rule commercial purchase badges with printed price tags on the back are of little interest and will not be included due to the sheer number of them, however like anything there can be exceptions if there is some compelling reason.

If you have vet badges and would like them included, my preference is to have them mailed here for photographic consistency but we may be able to work out another solution.

As in all my projects, your contribution will be noted.

Take care and God bless in 2017!]]> zhukovmdl@hotmail.com with a subject of "WWII Veteran Badges."

The forum originates in The Soviet Military Awards Bulletin Board System which had its first post on 4th June 2000 (Over 16 years ago now).

The very first post was by Art "If it creates some interest I'll keep it around". It certain has and does. We've been having and will continue to have fun too.

And secondly, I noticed that while HSUs are a hot item, not many collectors seem interested in the Hero of Soviet Labor medals and Order of Glory I unless it is a cavalier set. Am I mistaken about this or do you feel the same way?

Thanks!]]>
