Stalingrad Medal Award Certificates

[ubben77]

I recently picked up two Stalingrad Medal award certificates and have difficulty reading them. Can anyone help me with a translation?
I've tried but can't be certain of my outcome.

I would like to frame the medals and paper and put the names in them.
Thanks guys.

Suggestion: make a high quality photocopy of each and display those instead of the originals.
I framed my Stalingrad, and even well out of direct sunlight the ink faded, badly. Trust me on this, do yourself a favor and keep the originals in a nice, safe, dark place.

[ubben77]

Yes you are right. They are already yellowing badly.
I will do as you say.

Sure, several members here can help with translations, we just need larger pictures. I can't see a thing...

[ubben77]

Let's try that again. I think I've got the size thing figured out.

Much better!
