I've been meaning to post this group up for a while, but finally decided to... :)
This group of ribbons belonged to a Lieutenant Colonel tankist, who served during the Patriotic War and became one of the many "reserve" officers after the War. I am lucky enough to own all of his awards (though they are few) as well as many other documents, photos, and his ribbons.
The ribbons are unusual because of the last ribbon... I'm almost 100% certain that it is for the 25th Anniversary of Victory badge, but I've never seen another group like it, and I don't believe it was regulation to be worn as this.
Rather interesting! Has anyone else seen the 25th Anniversary badge worn as a ribbon before?
