Suspensions, Ribbons, Ribbon Bars And Order Of Precedence.

i dont' think the diagonal placement is appropriate on the M69 however, this woudl be a decent point to bring up...

I've attached some pics of diagonal awards being worn with the M69 uniform from "Военная одежда Вооруженных сил СССР и России 1917-1990" (an official history of uniform regs). I thought the illustration of a woman wearing diagonal awards was interesting (they seem to go under her jacket). M69 are the last uniforms shown with awards like this, however.

I do have issues of Soviet Military Review magazine from as late as 1977 that show photos of awards being worn diagonally. Seems to have been more common in the Navy.
