This medal is one of the post-war issues that were awarded by a Voenkomat<\/em>\u00a0(Military Commissariat) at the veteran\u2019s place of residence. The reasons for the late issue could vary but in most instances, the Voenkomat medals were \u201ccatch-up\u201d 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.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Awarded to all Soviet industrial workers for a term of one year or longer of labor during the War. (6 months for disabled military veterans, professional school graduates as well as the retired who returned to work to aid.)<\/em><\/p>\n
