Father/son docs group (with CSM and VoG docs and anniv. stuff)

[Kirchgoens]

I figure I'll try the auction method out and cull the herd of some extra stuff laying around the house:

A group of six docs with no medals from a father-son pair (family name Gavrilov). It includes the father's docs for wartime CSM, VoG, 20th GPW, and 50th Soviet Forces; and the son's 60th and 70th Soviet Forces docs.

The father's docs come from two different Samarkand, Uzbekistan area voenkomats (VoG from a regional office in Samarkand Oblast and the 20th GPW and 50th Sov Forces from the Samarkand city office), and the son's come from two different military units.

The CSM is long gone - the guy I bought them from only had the docs. I found these docs in Uzbekistan, but I believe the name is ethnic Russian (not an unusual thing in Central Asia). Let me know if you need the other (non-CSM) medals: I can easily find matches for you.

Auction ends at noon EST on Sunday 24 August. Shipping and PP fees will be based on actual costs, and should probably all come out to under $5 US. I think it will be similar for overseas, but I won't know until I weigh and pack it up.

Looks like these docs are going to Mr. CtahhR.

[Kirchgoens]

I've tried PM and email, but no response. Mr. CtahhR, are you out there?

[Christophe]

Hi Brian,

He appeared for the last time on 18 August... Maybe is he in holidays ?

Cheers.

I apologize for the late update. This one went to Mr. CtahhR a couple weeks ago.

Section 79039.234 of the Soviet Forum Regulations states as follows:

"Should there be no notification for a prolonged period of time, the Forgetter (Kirchgoens)
shall provide, for free, one Dragunov rifle or Stalingrad BM to the second bidder (Kapusta).

[Kirchgoens]

Said Kapusta didn't read the next clause that went something like this:

Should second bidder (Kapusta) require a rifle due to late notification, said rifle will be provided after the firing of a test round from said rifle into second bidder to ensure overall mechanical operability, followed by placement of Stalingrad BM in resultant wound in a vain attempt to staunch blood flow out of second bidder.

Wow, what a relief this forum rules section didn't get read too closely at the time of the late notification!
