I just received this portrait photo of a Russian soldier.
It looks like he has 2 Orders of the Patriotic War.
Can someone help me with the writing on the back?

A small add on.
That was a Red Banner oder he was awarded on 2 February 1945, not a Red Star.
A lttle strange he doesn’t wear it on this photo, which is signed Dec 1946.
Which makes me think it was taken in the beginning of 1945.
