Some of my Soviet medal groups

[Koba64]

What a great read that was, thanks for sharing them all! I've always liked the idea getting research done but I've shied away because of the cost. Your thread here has wised me up to the value of the story behind the award.
Cheers!

Owning a group like the one featured from Guards Captain Vladimir Vasilievich Kulishenko would be a collector dream for me. I still remember when it was for sale on the world wide web.

Thanks for sharing again all your collection on another forum.

Guards Captain Vladimir Vasilievich Kulishenko, 156th Guards Brandenburg, Order of the Red Banner, Order of Suvorov Artillery Regiment, 77th Guards Chernigovskii, Order of Lenin, Order of Kutuzov, Order of the Red Banner Division

He was "there" from the first to the last, no paper-pusher here!

While I have photos of many of these folks, I haven't been posting them. In this case, however, the visage of the man is too powerful to ignore (the eyes!). At age 22, he had served on the front for three years eight months, been wounded four times, and been decorated five times.

I've spotted a Polish decoracion "Krzyż Walecznych".
Major Vladimir Fedorovich Dubrovin received it.
Very impressive stuff you got there.
