Order Of Zhukov.
|
Has anyone ever seen one of these for sale?!
Perhaps I haven't give it any attention I guess! Probably given the fact it's one of those "obscures" new Russian Federation awards and also the fact it really looks like a fantasy piece indeed, IMHO! Dolf

Here is a photo of Marshal Losik where he wears Zhukov order.

Simon,
Interesting. It is the first time I can see one in wear. :) By chance, would you have a bigger pic ? ;) Or what is the source of this pic ? Cheers. Ch. Christophe Wrote:Interesting. It is the first time I can see one in wear. :) Christophe, I am happy that you appreciate this point. The only reason I posted the pic is because it is the only photo I have seen where a veteran is wearing this order. I thought other forum members would want to see it too. This picture came from an online version of Red Star newspaper, the official news source of Russia's Defence Ministry. Unfortunately, I don't have a higher resolution pic, but I do have a pic of Guards Colonel Losik which is also worth seeing. This man is 90 now and still sharp. He fought Finnish War. During GPW, his tank was the first one to enter my home town Minsk in 1944. In 1969, while commanding Far Eastern Military District, he gave the order to deploy multiple rocket launchers to destroy Chinese troops that were ready to invade Soviet territory. Cheers, Simon

Simon,
Excellent and many thanks. I'm just seeing your pics and posts today, and I regret not seeing them before (my fault, as your post was "seen" for my PC), as they are very good and informative. I'm not sure many members of the Forum have already seen this Order in wear, before. Again, many thanks. :thumbsup Cheers. Ch.

Here is a closer look at the order of Zhukov. This one was awarded the guy in this thread, Losik.
From this site: http://nagrada-info.narod.ru/jukov.html Some very nice stuff posted there! /Kim
