Exceptional historical decoration of the Soviet order Alexander Nevsky to the number 18941 with its booklet of attribution to the name of General Pierre Matras (1914-1998), ace of the French Hunt (9 victories including 8 on the Eastern Front).
He commanded in 1944/45 the 3rd squadron of the Normandy-Niemen regiment. Of the 42,165 recipients of this decoration for officers, only 70 foreigners were awarded this prestigious decoration, including only 6 Frenchmen, all of whom were Normandie-Niemen pilots. A highly coveted historical piece of extraordinary rarity for collectors of decorations or aviation history enthusiasts!
The badge and the booklet are in perfect condition and worthy to join such as they are a collection whose prestige will be increased by its possession. (Condition 1+)
