Incomplete[edit]

Why no mention of the Distinguished Service Cross, Navy Cross, or Air Force Cross?172.190.93.19 (talk) 08:09, 30 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Why no mention of the Order of Lenin and the Golden Star (Hero of the Soviet Union)? Several soviet "advisors" (mostly SA-2 missile commanders) received these decorations for their combat activity. 00:22, 1 January 2015 (UTC)
