Order of Lenin...

This is Vasilevsky's ribbon bar. Note that the hero stars are above the orders of victory.

Here is Zhukov wearing his stars above his Victory ribbons; I have seen other Victory recipients doing the same thing.

Incidentally, while I really appreciate matteti taking the time to post the list, I just wanted to mention that the table of ribbons in the back of the Comprehensive Guide makes a great reference for order of precedence.

It does not seem to follow the regulations, considering the awards that are in the bottom row - they should be at other places.

Can the Medal for Strengthening Military Cooperation be awarded twice ?

Here is the answer on this Colonel General of Aviation uniform... :thumbsup

Have you already seen this ?

Cheers.

Christophe,

According to the statutes of this medal, there is no multiple awarding.

Although your general seems to be a heavyweight, how does the ribbon bar look to you? For whatever reason, I don't overly like it, even though I can't pinpoint anything specific.

Hi Marc,

That's why I have taken the pic and posted it... ;)

I have not the name of this General, even if I could find it. What is sure is that he was a "real" General, participating to the MAKS Airshow in Zhukovsky, amongts other officials. Not a fantasy guy, in all sesn of the word... I have taken the pic at a moment we were relaxing, under a temperature of 35°C... ;)
Again, this is a "real" general, with a "real" uniform... :rolleyes:

The ribbon bar looked OK, sewn (attached ?) to the jacket. He apparently likes the un-official medals... The HSU is a wearer copy, with the back blank and "frosted". I have taken it in hands...

Cheers.

Wow, that was an odd bar. Seems he like to mix Soviet, Russian and other awards using logics I guess only himself understand.

If that uniform/bar had been for sale, I would have dismissed it as a fantasy bar - and many with me I think.

Almost a complete set of Umalatova medals....

My opinion remains that this general has "improved" his range of awards.
Until recently, it was no big problem to acquire blank official documents and fill them up yourself with whatever you felt like being awarded.
