I now understand as well. Thank you, Dood. I will post a copy of the award card that came from the Archives.

Part 2

I hope that these documents help a little.


BTW, while the last two entries in the book in the first post look very simular, check out the "2"s closely. They look totall different, IMHO.

Also the stamps for the ORS and the ORB look different. The one for the ORB is a tad lighter than the ORS-entry, so i guess, they were done at a different time.

I agree, its never wrong to be suspicous, but in this case i would be happy with this group

I know VERY little russian at this stage, but it believe that the award card indicates that the long-service ORS and ORB should be found in document #xxxxx, which is the same document number as the combat ORS and other medal, thus confirming desantnik's opinion. Correct?

[Dood]

THi!
Thanks for new photos!! My doubts have dissipated. The version desantnik I think the most correct. Excuse, that has called in question. Simply now many similar fakes!
