Well doing some homework on the Soviet orders, decorations and so on. I've deduced these medals: Hero of the Soviet Union 2x Awarded Order of Lenin 2x Awarded Order of the Red Star 3x Awarded (If he survived WW2 to 1945) - Order of the Patriotic War Order of Alexander Nevsky 2nd Class Order of Kutuzov 1st Class, two classes Order of Glory 1st Class, all 3 classes Order "For Service to the Homeland in the Armed Forces of the USSR" Literally Lazar met all criteria for these medals. Lazar IS the Red Army.

P.S. Also 3rd Class of Order of Bogdan Khmelnitsky since he was less than rank of NCO. But given what he did, he'd be promoted to captain.

[@johnalogue9832]

Like trading in a Ford Focus RS for a Ford Expedition. Bigger, able to shove more people into the back, sure, but worse in every other way!

This reminds me of an anecdote my grandfather used to tell. His neighbor in the small village where he grew up had somehow gotten hold of a Kübelwagen after the war, which he parked in the barn. One day in the morning, the poor guy grazed the barn door as he was driving out, and that was the end of him. And the barn. It took like half a year to clear all of the rubble. Anyway, I don't think there are any Kübelwagen around any more. The Verfassungsschutz tracked down and scrapped the last ones during the 70s.
