Like the Medal "For Courage", its status was revised to prevent the medal from being given for years of service (a practice that was rampant in the USSR) rather than actual bravery during a battle. More than 5,210,000 medals were awarded between 1938 and 1991. It is comes from Kharkiv, key city near Ukraine-Russia border now suffering from strong bombing attacks from russian invaders. I live in this city and now taking a part in defending Ukraine as a member of United Military Forces of Ukraine. FREE shipping Worldvide.
