Order Of Nakhimov

30 July 2012 "Vladimir Putin signed an Executive Order decorating the heavy nuclear-powered missile cruiser Pyotr Veliky with the Order of Nakhimov. The Executive Order awards the decoration to the Pyotr Veliky [Peter the Great] for the courage, dedication, and high level of professionalism the ship’s crew have shown in the performance of their military duties. " Source : Kremlin.ru Pyotr Veliky (Пётр Великий) is a heavy nuclear-powered missile cruiser (TARKR), the fourth Kirov class battlecruiser of the Russian Navy, originally named Yuri Andropov (Юрий Андропов).

Re: Order Of Nakhimov
A bit garish when compared to the soviet one.

Re: Order Of Nakhimov

Re: Order Of Nakhimov
I guess I am old-fashioned. To me these are flashy but tacky.
I guess lots of money does not equal good taste. Simon |

Re: Order Of Nakhimov
I fully agree with you Simon, the perfect simple and unique beauty of the Soviet Orders is unrepeatable.

Re: Order Of Nakhimov
What gets me, is that we spend so much time looking for signs of authentic ageing and wear on Soviet pieces, that when i see modern awards and some of the later awards from the Soviet States, they just look unauthentic!
I suppose in 70 yeasr time, this order of Nakhimov will look very different still! Tom |
