Here is a group of female soldiers, each wearing at least one of these badges.

Re: Badge "The Red Banner Of Three Great Revolutions".
Here is another variation of the 1st Class award. It has been crudely dated on the reverse "1999.9" so it would indicate a September 1999 award. Probably as close to "research" as would ever be possible.

Re: Badge "The Red Banner Of Three Great Revolutions".
Here is a second award Badge. Although this Badge is made out of the same light aluminium as the other Badges due to the fact that this is riveted together from two pieces that little bit of extra weigh really brings this Badge to the fore.
This Badge has been crudely inscribed "최순" (Choesun) on the reverse, a Korean female's given name which would fit in rather well with the above photograph.

Re: Badge "The Red Banner Of Three Great Revolutions".
Is there any information on how these relate to the order?
All three, side-by-side. |

Re: Badge "The Red Banner Of Three Great Revolutions".
According to the 2008 Census of the DPRK the number of actively barracked forces of the Korean People's Army was 662,349 Men and 40,023 Women which would mean that women only make up 6% of the Korean People's Army.

Re: Badge "The Red Banner Of Three Great Revolutions".
Very interesting, thanks! They do deflate the census numbers of course. The official stats are lower what we recognize in the West--that they are closer to 1 million under arms. (Which the DPRK say is ridiculous ;) )
I prefer the DPRK traffic ladies myself. :) |
