Gajewski Waleryjan (medal box. View from the top)
I would like to post here the result almost
8 mounth reaserch & work for my great
grandfather's awwards restore process:
One more time want to leave here a great Thank You to the warrelics members (Andrzej,Konrad & others) who begin to involve me inside the history of the 2nd Corp and helped a lot with the reaserch.
When I stared there are only 3 original photos, 3 legitimacja, army pay book & kalendarzyk polskiego czerwonego krzyzy w Palestynie.
I made a medalbox with the 3DSK sign on the top.
Also tried to use the brown color which symbolize the color of the battle dress of the 2nd Corp soldiers

I can restore & approve all absent awwards & also rebuild the original MCC number of my great grandfather:
All awwards are original one, exept Odznaka 81 Pułk Strzelców Grodzieńskich. This is a custom-made replika of the soldiers version, made for participation in historical reconstructions and shooting of historical films. For this moment I coudn't find an original item of Podoficerska version.

As you can see the second one follows the KMC, before the Medal Wojska. It a little bit diffrent from the official order. I did it on purpose, because as I know this awward was the most important for my great grandfather. Most part of his stories for my parents were about this battle. Also saw that many veterans wore it first.
