    Description

    Soviet Russian Complete Documented group of NKVD/SMERSH/KGB Colonel Chirikov A.G
    The group comes with 3 orders, including scarce Type 2 screwback Red Banner, all pretty much unworn, as customary for NKVD/KGB officers.
    All come with their original screwback nuts.
    Then, there is Orders Book, listing these 3 awards (nothing is missing, group is absolutely complete, as far as numbered awards).
    Also, the group comes with 7 jubilee medals certificates (no medals, but they can be easily added). Also, 2 color scans of archival citations. And, finally, the group includes 2 Honorary KGB veteran badges with their corresponding ID booklets (one contains photo), one of those (badge #572, issued in 1957) is an extremely rare variation, even more so when accompanied by ID booklet w/photo.
    According to research, colonel Chirikov in 1942 not only took part in person in combat actions against Germans, he was also instrumental in intellidence/spy work both behind enemy's lines, as well as on liberated territories, finding and neautralizing enemy's spies, checking backgrounds of everyone, who stayed under occupation, etc. Apparently, he was part of SMERSH during those years.
    Excellent condition on all items.
    Very rare complete distinguished NKVD/SMERSH/KGB officer group, with rare and fully documented orders and badges!
