Ansary Awards
In the picture of Ansary on the right the medal on the left appears to be the Federal Space Agency's Badge For Space Actitities Support (see below). The badge "is awarded to foreign nationals for the promotion of space activities, for major contributions to the specialist training and promulgation of Russia's achievements in space." The badge "is [normally] bestowed upon employees of the Agency central staff and Russian space-related organizations who have worked in the industry for no less than 5 years...." Space Exploration Awards, Volume II. I'm not sure about the medal on the right.

Alexander Ivanovich Lebed'
One of the more "interesting" (and I'm not sure I say this in a positive way) figures in recent Russian/Soviet history is Alexander Ivanovich Lebed' (Алекса́ндр Ива́нович Ле́бедь, 1950-2002).
Wilkipedia (all disclaimers engaged) says of his military career: Quote:
A few relevant images follow. (Notice his sloppiness with how he wears his awards. Pardon the stupidity, but what is the neck badge?) To lighten the search, a couple of quotes from Wikipedia: (On the Russians) "Most Russians don't care whether they are ruled by fascists or communists or even Martians as long as they can buy six kinds of sausage in the store and lots of cheap vodka." (On the Soviet-Afghan War) "We began the war with lofty aims but ended up with a war against the people." Additional wisdom? (Without getting political, please.) |

Re: Russian Federation Awards in wear.
Hertsen Stepanovich Glavatskih was Glazov area Chief Agronomist of the agriculture sector from 1969 - 1974. From 1974 to 1986 an instructor for the District Party Committee, head of the organisational and agricultural departments. From 1986 to 1997 Deputy head of the Executive Committee Of Agriculture Glazov District Soviet Of People's Deputies.
He worked in the reorganisation of collective and state farms, introduced advanced technology in agricultural production and significantly improved the material and technical base of the economy. A real mixed bag of awards. I believe the "non-black earth" is an Umalatova and the order of precedence is incorrect. A rather strange suspension device used though.

Re: Russian Federation Awards In Wear.

I'd talk more about the lack of commemorative awards (or OPW '85) and strange array of organisational awards, lack of portrait or identification.
Here is Chief Of General Staff, First Deputy Minister Of Defence General Of The Army Valerij Gerasimov. Every time I see his portrait I hear Michael Stipe and Kate Pierson singing "Shiny Happy People". Wonder why?
