Made of brass. Measures 32.09 mm in width, 37.12 mm in height, including the eyelet and it weighs 16.5 grams without its suspension.Â

These post-war issues were awarded by a Voenkomat (Military Commissariat) at the veteran’s place of residence. The reasons for the late issue could vary but in most instances; the Voenkomat medals were “catch-up” awards to those who had taken part in the battle and then somehow overlooked by the awarding authorities during WW2 and in the immediate post-war years.
Awarded to Soviet service personnel who were on active service during The Great Patriotic War on the eastern theatre against Japan.Â
