Sebastien, Where were you until now? You have great material. * Dove eri fino ad oggi? Hai del materiale magnifico.

I did better shots!

really heavy patina:

Nice, Seb!

Very nice order, komsomol, congrats! Most likely was worn in combat.
The photos are very good and detailed.

Nice photos! It's worn but it's really a beauty . Seb, have you got any news about the research?

Digging up the topic: no, I'm not lucky with Podvig' which is not fair with me. Or maybe a problem of misreading the name, but the friend Lapa gave too his thongue to the cat!

Seb, I tried to do the search using only Галеев, but I could not find anything, at this point only a researcher can help you.

Isn't that a P, not an L? If so this could be your guy: Гапеев Иван Афанасьевич . Erned his Red Banner in a Black Sea Fleet Shturmovik regiment. The date seem to fit with a screwback. My Russian is to bad to give a translation of the citation.

Thanks a lot! A research indeed would be the definitve proof. Moisseyev sold this order to me with the Galeev translation. I tried some variaions, but not with the "P" for Gapeev"... Or Podvig' just updated the series containing this man?
