Who is this?

Hello

I am going to show a group.

The prize for the person who gets it right is a steak dinner and as many beers as they can drink in Johannesburg.

Kind regards

Some suggestions

Difficult to identify all these orders and medals from these pictures. I have some suggestions:

First box:
GDR - Order of Merit for Country 2nd class
Mongolia - Order of the Combatant Merit

(Order: 1, 2 / 3, 4 / 5, 6):
Mongolia - 30th anniversary of the Victory at Chalkin Gol
Mongolia - 30th anniversary of the defeat of militant Japan
Mongolia - 50th anniversary of the republic
Mongolia - 50th anniversary of the Mongol Peoples Army
Mongolia - 60th anniversary of the Mongol Peoples Army ?
Mongolia - 40th anniversary of the Victory at Chalkin Gol ?

The last two looks like they have switched "ribbons".

Second box:

First row:
Poland - Cross of valor
Poland - Order of Polonia Restituta
Bulgaria - Order of 9th september
? - need a closer scan
? - need a closer scan

Second row:
? - need a closer scan
Cuba - 20th anniversary of the armed forces "Granma medal".
Hugary - need another book!
China - Sino-Soviet Friendship
CSSR - War Cross 1939-1945
? - need a closer scan
? - need a closer scan

I have of course no idea who won these medals.

Munroe,
What about air tickets?
Do you pay for them as well?

Dear Eugene

This is the only way I can get some Soviet collector to visit South Africa.

You pay your airline ticket.

I will include 3 nights accomonation at a 4 star hotel in the prize. Hows that for you...

regards

Munroe

Dear Eugene

You are correct. Its Col Gen Dragunsky.

But I think you knew I had the group. Now how about the rest of the orders and medals.

regards from a sunny day in SA
