PDRA ribbon bars

A few sample ribbon bars. They illustrate, among other things, how little we know about the chaos that PDRA awards represent (almost worse than Mongolian ribbons, maybe).

GROUP 1

1) Order of the Red Banner

2) Medal “For Excellent Service”; Medal for Combat Service (?)

3) Medal for Gallantry; Medal “10th Anniversary of the Saur Revolution”; Medal “70th Anniversary of Restoration of Independence of Afghanistan”

GROUP 2

1) ??? (Order of Gallantry?)

2) ???; ???; ???

3) ???; Order of the Star; ???

4) Medal “For Excellent Service”; Medal for Gallantry; Medal “70th Anniversary of Restoration of Independence of Afghanistan” (?)

5) Medal “70th Anniversary of Restoration of Independence of Afghanistan” (?); Medal “10th Anniversary of the Saur Revolution”; Medal for Good Conduct in Military Service

GROUP 3

1) Medal “For Excellent Service”; Medal “For Excellent Service”; ??? (Order of the Sun?)

2) Medal for Good Conduct in Military Service; Medal for Good Conduct in Military Service; Medal for Good Conduct in Military Service

Re: Ribbon Bars.

A few more, singles this time.

First, some odd plastic ones.

And some cloth ones.

Sorry, in some cases they are flipped. The problems of arranging these unbalanced ribbons on the scanner. But you get the point anyway?
