oamotme Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Gentlemen, Obtained from an European dealer some time ago. The inscription reads, "For Service in the Petroleum Industry" or similar - to be confirmed. Presumably from the Derg period as there are no imperial symbols and the quality is relatively poor. As it is industry specific, and I am assuming the oil/petrol industry was nationalised, thus it may have some official status. The reverse is blank and the green ribbon came with the medal and I have no evidence that it is or is not the original ribbon. Kind regards, Owain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter monahan Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 How Soviet! I wonder, would there have been specific awards for other industries? I've always loved the Mongolian concept: "Exceptional Goatherd, 3rd Class" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
