I have met a veteran awarded 2 Ushakov and 1 Nahimov medals. He currently resides in St. Louis, MO.

Very very cool thank you for sharing it with us :)

It almost looks like someone tried to make a "Fantasy" piece for that Games work place (not sure if we are allowed to say the actual name) fantasy tabletop battle thing. Probobly for their "Marine" outfit or something, it looks exactly like the "Imperial Eagle" from this table top gaming thing.

Very cool addition to the collection Hey at least you saved these, who knows where they could of ended up in, they are in a home that cherishes them and someone who displays them proudly :)

I believe its a custom sweetheart pin, and that your assumption is correct, it matches a similar style to the other wings.

Can't read the top hallmarks are you using Macro on your camera? (it is the little flower setting, or on some cameras the Fork and Spoon)

Great addition to the collection I've never seen Romanian Ribbon bars so these are very cool indeed :D

How well defended is this location Can skillful Ninjas enter and inspect this closely like in some European museums ? hehehehe

Would be sweat to hold it

Link doesn't work but I'd love to see em :D

Sweet find amazing putting the name to it :)

Wow beautiful wish I could visit it in person

Aye fantastic piece

Does the price differ from Reguler EK in this year range?

At least you know they are (or were) legit medals that Liverpool is marking up lol

If anyone considers buying one of those Liverpool listings, I have a very amazing even better version for a bigilion dollars

Left one is Chinese I have no idea what it says.

Right one is Korean Script.

It says 모범

In this context I think it means Exemplary or Best, the usual translation for 모범 is Model.

From the look of the photo it could be a Best Rider badge or something similar.

Really cool find congrats :D

That's my point. The US should have strict laws dealing with people who wear awards that they don't deserve.

I agree, but I think that it would spawn some debate on whether or not people should collect militaria in the first place. Anything even remotely similar to the topic and it usually gets people talking about collecting.

The down side is that those people that are opposed to collecting orders and medals, never seem to meet (or even listen) to people that enjoy it and do it to commemorate the Veterans and the history of these recipients that served. I'm sure if we brought a bunch over to the forum here and explained our points and why we do it, that a lot could change

but then I'm getting off topic

Stricter laws on wearing orders and medals - yes (but not restricting people wearing items they've earned, ie not having every Veteran file a request with their gov. to wear something they've earned, even if the Nation they earned it with is not that friendly with their current nation)

I was unaware of the penalties angle to this but it does shed some light on the matter. It's too bad that the US doesn't follow similar policies for people who strut around wearing more medals than the president of Paraguay. Thanks for the info. NGL

The U.S. Only really has issues when it is the MOH, other orders and medals it seems are passable to a point. In terms of owning etc, not wearing them

I think any order or medal in which the country doesn't exist anymore could in theory be worn as jewellery pieces.

There are some celebs that get away with wearing stuff that is still issued now a days (Serbian Order of the White Eagle anyone? , Russian Order of St. George etc)

What about the patch? Part of the Beret or might be something different? (addition later on?)

I don't understand it either You know its sad when I've seen more copies of the semi-unissued Gulf War medal than the Vietnam piece :D

Yes, or similar to Cadets, it really depends on what "Scout" they used as variation.

Usually Canadian Scouts don't carry or shoot weapons for the children's organizations.

Just make sure to double check, this could in all possibility be some Military group within Canada too but the Scouts Canada really makes me think Boy Scouts/Girl Scouts style

From the label, it looks like a Catholic Scouts Organization Berret.

It looks very similar to the "Four Arrows" Scouts organization here in Quebec.

Someone may or may not have sewn that label in.. :S

This is all an assumption so wait for an expert to chime in but it definatley resembles scouts I've seen in Quebec :)

Really cool group even Long Service orders and medals sometimes tell you of the recipient's career and accomplishments Excellent addition to your collection :)

Man why wouldn't you wear the real thing Even the mini looks too sharp

Excellent little one

Since i posted the Photo of Lt Wolf 30 minutes ago the relative I got the cross from confirmed he was in Jäger bataillon 13
