The awards`placement is incorrect. Screwbacks should be at left (the right side of the picture:) ) and the suspension ones should be under them. Take a look at the last left row of the old man´s uniform. Rank is different, but I don´t think that that would change the award regulations too much.

By the way, nice tunic! Is it yours? If so, how did you get it?

Regards,
Esteban

Hi, Guys

Partly right!! It is one of my North Korea uniform collection. Esteban is right, but not point out all the mistakes. I am waiting for the further one:) I have another set. But according to the forum rule, I can't say anything about sale or trade.

Doc, you have a pair of good eyes, the middle is Military Service Honor Order 1cl.:)

Top Row: Meritorious Service Medal
2nd Row left: Military Merit Medal (late 1950-1970's version)

My Only Referrence book has some poor quality pictures of the medals. That's all I can guess for now.:banghead

Best,
Doc

Thanks TAZ!!! I was going crazy trying to make out some of the medals in my only North Korean referrence book, an OMSA Medal notes.

Best,

Doc,
I hope they are correct I'm sure Tang si will correct us if not.
If that is the commemorative medal do you think it should be there in the order of precedence?


Best regards Eddie.

Eddie,
The 60th Commemorative medal should be last in line.

Best,

Well Doc,
In fact it seems that nobody really knows the correct order of precedence at the moment. The other sticky at the top of the North Korean threads is rather incomplete. Commemorative Orders are above a lot of medals, however
Commemorative medals seem to be lower down on the list. Also some are not included at all.
Logic seems to say that the Commemorative medal should be behind the Medal for military service so I would tend to stick with that version at the moment. It will be interesting to see what Tang Si has to say about this.
The collar tabs seems to be the only other thing that can be wrong, most of the tunics I found on the web sadly didn't have any insignia at all on them at all :(

regards Eddie.
