For the invasion of Manchuria, he was awarded the Order of the Patriotic War 1st Class with similar citation and position. In 1942, he was was awarded the Bravery Medal for much the same. Condition is as seen in the images! A few minor enamel chips. The serial number of the award is authentic and matches the serial number shown in the archival documents, obviously! If you require confirmation in advance, please send me a message, and I will gladly provide images. Over time, I have found that redacting award serial numbers in certain listings (particularly of researched awards) has acted a simple and effective filter to sort good customers from troublesome eBay hooligans. Reasonable, rational collectors who are genuinely interested in the history represented by an award will make the effort to reach out and will quickly find that everything is in order. Winner will be provided with archival research (32 pages - including Citation and Award Record Card) in electronic format, unredacted, in color, plus an archival portrait of Cherny, also in electronic format. Professional English translation of the Record Card and Citation is available if requested before receipt of item. No returns. All questions in advance. I will answer all coherent, respectful inquiries to the best of my ability. INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING AVAILABLE only through eBay’s Global Shipping Program (GSP).
