Well, I did say I wanted to add CCCP (and Polish) militaria to the collection and I found this, most beautiful designed medal, Order of the Red Star. The Red Star has always been captivating to me, much like the swas. With no disrespect, I have always considered the USSR as an Axis Power…..Katyn and Soviet occupation in Poland for over 40 years comes to mind. Anyways, here’s the award and it has not been researched and I don’t know what year it was awarded. I do know the award was given to persons with exceptional service to the motherland.
