Major-General (Aviation) & Hero of the Soviet Union (#7925), Viktor Georgevich Grachev
A nice document, Bill.
I am wondering if anyone can decipher this. I am unsure eof the signer of the document. I can only read that it was 30 Sep, 1946. Commander 61pabr.
I think it says Guards Colonel. I am not sure...
It says Guards Colonel indeed. The name is hard to decipher but a few here on the forum always come up with good answers
The stamp appears to be from the "Управлении 61-й Пушечной Артиллерийской Пластунской Краснознаменной ордена Кутузова бригады" or Directorate of the 61st Cannon Artillery Plastunskaya Red Banner Order of Kutuzov Brigade.
Thank you for the post. The plastun were cossacks, according to Wikipedia, so would the 61st be a cossack Brigade possibly?
A honorific title doesn't show or mean the unit's origin. Check this page for more info, including a long (not complete) list:
