Photographs Of Recipients Of Soviet Awards/Service Personnel.
Hi
If we look at official portraits of Soviet marshals of the USSR, we can see that if the Marshal CCCP is pictured with dress uniform or the 1945 victory parade uniform, we can identify Russian imperial awards, among awards from other countries. Do anyone have an idea about the regulations concerning display of imperial awards on Soviet uniforms? Do they have ribbons for the imperial awards, on the "fruit salad" (when the marshal used his everyday uniform)? |

Tal,
I've always seen them on the side opposite of Soviet awards. Take a look at this pic of Zukov..I can't recall seeing foreign awards on a Soviet service uniform.

at the large "fruit salad" picture, the lowest 5 ribbons are foreign ribbons. At the Marshal picture, the lowest 13 are foreign.

Now that is something..I never noticed that. I wonder if any U.S. ribbons were worn like this on a Soviet uniform, or vice versa..I guess it's something that transcends politics.

Guys,
You confuse foreign awards with Russian imperial. Foreign awards were common for high rank army personal. Mongolian awards even were made by Soviet mint. From another hand, Russian imperial awards were not allowed. Only on imperial awards was tolerated and it was soldier St. George Cross. Many soldiers and officers who participated in World War II had this Cross for World War I. It had four classes. Soviet Marshall Budenniy had all four classes of this soldier award but never wore them. On the picture HSU Nedorubov wearing four St. George crosses. |

Eugene,
The question remains - why imperial orders/medals were allowed on full dress uniforms, but on every day uniforms no ribbons were included? Can you identify some of the orders in the above pictures? Tal |

A really tiny picture scanned at very high resolution to reveal a Red Star and a Bravery Medal. . .
