Soviet Russian USSR WWII medal Order of the Patriotic War 2nd Class with serial number in the 200-250 range, researched, awarded in 1944 to Colonel Aleksei Zhdanov, commander of the 264th Rifle Regiment, 241st Rifle Division, for heroism in combat! The award citation praises Zhdanov’s leadership qualities, as a result of which his regiment inflicted significant losses in men and materiel upon the enemy. It goes on to list several particular actions at various villages, rivers, and heights, where Zhdanov led his men in fierce battles and emerged victorious. In total, the citation credits Zhdanov and his regiment with liberating 60 villages, killing 850 German troops, destroying 5 tanks, taking 40 prisoners, and various other feats, all while covering 200 kilometers over a period of four days. Zhdanov is believed to have received his award in the Kremlin, although there is not currently documentary proof of this. Per the citation for Zhdanov’s long service Order of Lenin, his commander (241st Rifle Division) noted deficiencies in his performance beginning after the actions for which he was awarded this Patriotic War 2nd Class. It is possible that Zhdanov – a career officer who fought in the Russian Civil War – was experiencing trauma from the intense combat. Notably, his division commander originally recommended him for a mere Order of the Red Star, and the corps commander confirmed the Red Star. Zhdanov’s award would appear to have been upgraded to the Patriotic War 2nd Class at the Army level. Overall, an excellent combat award to a regimental commander, and a fascinating case study! Condition is as seen in the images! Some enamel flakes, but very handsome overeall. The serial number of the award is authentic and matches the serial number shown in the archival documents. If you require confirmation in advance, please send me a message, and I will gladly provide images. 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 (18 pages – including Citation and Award Record Card) in electronic format, unredacted, in color. Professional English translation of the Record Card and Citation is available if requested before receipt of item. All questions in advance. I will answer all coherent, respectful inquiries to the best of my ability. Please see my other listings. Lots of excellent Soviet medals!
