I’ve seen many pics of Vets wearing Umalatovas, as Ed said, with pride. It’s an interesting angle to collect especially when you can get the award document with it.

A Very Courageous Soldier of the Great Patriotic War.I I can’t find the pictures of his medal bar but, here’s his Order of the Red Banner S/N 44528. It’s missing the OPW, 2nd Class. His picture is from his Service Records. This is a complete set of Soviet Research which includes the Award record card (ARC), the Citation(s) and the Service Record. I’ll post the pics of the medal bar as soon as I find them.

Guards Junior Sergeant Mikhail Petrovich Smadik, 22nd Guards Cavalry Regiment, 5th Guards Cavalry Division
The recommendation:
"On the 1st of May 1945, while attacking the front line of the enemy’s defences Sergeant Smadik demonstrated courage and bravery while in the ranks of a mounted platoon. By his own initiative, during an attack in the area of Tsulen village, he chased the retreating enemy, killing 4 soldiers with the blade and taking 2 German officers prisoner. To this date, Comrade Smadik has 56 exterminated fascists on his battle account. He deserves the governmental award Order ‘Glory 3rd Class’."
Many medals missing, alas. But researched in full.
