Russian Federation Awards In Wear.

[CtahhR]

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.

Assistant Minister Of Defence Colonel-General Aleksandr Zelin has two rather high status Badges overlooking his Soviet awards.

In the lower right hand of Chemezov's uniform, what is the security service's medal? It doesn't quite look like the 50/60/70-year anniversary badges...

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?

Aleksandr Ivanovich Tihonov..... Is it me or is the one by his fly missing?

Here is a rather strange group to M. I. Petrushov. A veteran that seems to have been completely overlooked for the 40th anniversary celebrations but remembered twice for the 50th. The photograph is from 2009 so no 65th.

Not a diplomatic uniform, but here is a Russian 2 star Navy captain on a diplomatic mission.

I've met the Pakistani Consul Kathio on the left.

Here is Aleksej Aleksandrovich Stefanov in January 2013. A Stalingrad born veteran of Leningrad and Stalingrad. Four Red Stars and Three Patriotic Wars a tribute to the fact that this Senior Lieutenant led a platoon of Assault Engineers right into the thickest of it. Certainly worthy of repeated commemoratives and organisational awards.

Here is 1924 born Chinese Ethnic Korean Guelmime Nyeosa. A veteran of the Great Patriotic War and Chinese Liberation War. Awarded the Medal "For Combat Merits" by the Soviets and "North-East Liberation Commemorative" Medal by the Chinese she seems to have been completely ignored (by the Sino-Soviet split?) until an OPW'85. The Russian Federation then awarded her with the 50th and 60th Anniversaries as well as a Zhukov. The Chinese also awarded her a 60th anniversary commemorative of the liberation of the north east which is reportedly 24k (and also on the same ribbon as the Russian 50th). A very strange group which would seem to be incomplete - but is not.

She was also invited to Pyongyang to celebrate Kim Il-Sung's 80th birthday celebrations in 1992.

Comparing the two photographs that were allegedly at the same event she may wish to attach her awards a bit tighter.

interesting:
Mihail Kalashnikov only display his orders, but no medals!
The only pictures in which his medals could be identifiable are pictures like the one below, with ribbons:
