Medals: Get One!

[Dr. Nick]

But, but, the pen! The pen is, ahem, mightier than the sword! Or the Moisin Nagant for that matter!

[curtsibling]

True!

Our partisan leaders tell me that a pen stuck in the right crank shaft may make a Panzer grind to a halt!

They actually haven't succeeded yet in doing this, but it's possible, theoretically...

Order of the Red Banner ceremony

Today in a small ceremony marshal H-tower was presented his first millitary medal by members of the stavka and others

He was given the Order of the red banner for his commencement of re-organising the soviet war effort. He is currently on study leave at Perm learning about modern war methods.

We hope that he will return soon and display his medal with pride.

Now we need some for the front commanders.

Seems like we are slowing the Krauts.

[H Tower]

colwyn certainly slowed them down when he recaptured Minsk, gives the labor brigades another 2 turns maybe to complete the minefields outside of smolensk and vitebesk

BUMP!

Now that winter is praticaly upon us I think it would be timely for the Marshal to hand out some medals for the Summer Campaign.

I would like to be the first to nominate Colwyn as a Hero of the Soviet Union for his fantasic performance on the Belorussian front, retaking Minsk to hold of the Axis for another turn and for holding Smolensk and Vitebsk against all of our expectations ensuring the safety of the capital.

Of-course this could all change in the Germans last turn of summer

Excellent idea Comrade. Ill have to see where Comrade Pavlov lands in the upcoming political struggle first though. (If you have no idea what Im talking about see the STAVKA thread...... )

Ha! Yes indeed. I can smell the intrigue from here comrade!

I'd like to nominate Colwyn and Shaka Naldur for medals, for their excellent defense of the Belorussian and 1st Ukranian fronts.

Good! Thats the Intent. Medals are not just given for good performance but also for party loyalty, (which means loyalty to me!)

Duely noted and despite my concerns about my future I do have to admit that I totally agree.

Although other Front Commanders have also done well. Both Yopov's and Henrikov's last minute defense of Leningrad (working together for the betterment of the whole) also need consideration.

[Colwyn]

I smell a medal....!!!

Parties loyalties?, my marshal remember I voted/supported you in to start with, I have holiday'd with you at your dasha (yahoo messanger) in the stavka thread I am agreeing with you re marshal 's not being on the stavka at the same time, ughmm and the others things well, err err
