Order of the Patriotic War 2nd Class (Serial Numbered & Researched!)
€250,00
Original Soviet Order of the Patriotic War 2nd Class. This serial number was researched and it belonged to Major KUZNETSOV PETR FILIPPOVICH, Chief editor of the 64 rifle division newspaper “Vpered za Rodinu” (“Forward, for Motherland!”). Comes with its original backplate and the red enamel is completely intact as well as the golden hammer & sic. Condition as seen.
Since the beginning of the offensive on 23 June 1944, the chief editor of the
newspaper “Forward, for Motherland!” comrade KUZNETSOV ensured proper and
timely issue of the newspaper and special leaflets. This was achieved in the
complication of being constantly on the move during the offensive. As the result of
this, the soldiers and the officers were properly informed on the main evens on the
fronts, on the division combat events, and on the Allied combat operations. The
division newspaper under the lead of comrade KUZNETSOV has been playing an
important role in raising the troops combat moral, popularisation of the heroic
feats, and education the troops in being brave soldiers. Overcoming tremendous
difficulties, KUZNETSOV managed to maintain tight contact with the military
correspondents. He personally ventured out and interviewed the troops. The
division newspaper is an important social information channel, which mobilises
the troops and illuminates on the most relevant and important topics, and
assisted the combat successes.
Comrade KUZNETZOV deserves state award – order “PATRIOTIC WAR II CLASS”.
