Cool!
Edit: HSU recipient I see... any info on the pilot?
Edit 2: Ugh... Order of the Red Banner, not Hero of the Soviet Union... I always get those seals mixed up... Nonetheless, any info on the pilot(s)?

Sorry not at this time. There were at least three other B-25s with the same badges though.

Anyone know what the name means?

FYI, the badge on the right is the badge signifying that its part of a Guards Regiment and the one on the left is that of the Order of the Red Banner. Don't know how much you know about VVS 'insignia'.

EDIT: it would seem that that little 'lib' below the Guards bage and the ORB badge was affixed on every bomber in the 13th GvBAP.
A 'sister ship' in the division:
