SSGN Kursk, Post-Soviet Tragedy
Here are two badges that frame the life of the SSGN Kursk, the nuclear-powered submarine cruiser. The bright sunny badge celebrates the launch of the sub in 1994. The dark gloomy badge honors the recovery divers operating under extremely difficult conditions after the fateful explosions on 08/12/2000. 118 men died aboard (111 crew members, 5 officers of 7-th SSGN Division headquarters and 2 designers). The crew had just won a rank of the best submarine crew of the Northern Fleet.
