Re: U.S. Army Decorations Awarded to Red Army Personnel in World War II
I agree, when worn in such a sharp incline the awards usually look unusual, but if you line up where the award would be attached to the appropriate ribbon, they are as they should be.

Re: U.S. Army Decorations Awarded to Red Army Personnel in World War II
It's difficult to get an overall feel of the serviceman getting just a partial shot of his chest. Did the photographer have some sort of fetish or was the recipient just sat too close to the camera?

It's just photo cropping to better capture the awards in light of the 120kb limitation.

U.S. Army Decorations Awarded to Red Army Personnel in World War II

This point/question has come up on the forum in the past. There was a period in time when the orders/medals were in fact worn in the order/precedence seen in this image. DougD or another forum uniform expert should be able to furnish more detail. Regards, slava1stclass |
