Ferdinand Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 (edited) Who can help me identify the right Cavalier of the Order of Glory? The left was already identified by Forum member slava1stclass as Guards Colonel Aleksei Vasilyevich Rumyantsev. The picture must have been taken during a recent victory commemoration. Thanks a lot in advance!Auke Edited November 6, 2006 by Ferdinand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stogieman Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 Hi Ferdinand, outstanding photo. When was it taken? Interesting that on both these Cavalier sets it appears the 2.Kl. has no gilding left?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Zulus Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 Dear Auke,great picture - many thanks .Sorry, I also don't know the comrade at the right side .At the beginning of the year 1993 about 700 Cavaliers of the Order of Glory had been still among us. Does anyone know the figure for 2006?Best regardsChristianP.S.: There is also a third set of a Glory-Trio at the right border of the photograph ...

Ferdinand Posted November 7, 2006 Author Share Posted November 7, 2006 Thank you all for your replies. I have honestly no idea when exactly this picture was taken, but probably during a recent victory commemoration. I got it together with a few other veteran pics (unfortunately no more Cavaliers though).Auke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christophe Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 Auke,Very nice photographs.Interesting how the last veteran mixed the Veteran of Labor Medal with the ribbon of the Medal 60 Years of the Armed Forces of the USSR...Ch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferdinand Posted December 26, 2006 Author Share Posted December 26, 2006 I noticed that too. Here's another veteran, not a cavalier but a nice picture (sorry, a little bit off-topic). A 20th Anniversary of Victory Medal with a kolodka of the 70th Anniversary of the Armed Forces turned upside down, a Victory over Germany with a 30th Anniversary of Victory ribbon, his 1985 OPW 1 is on the left instead of right, and a 70th Anniversary of Armed Forces with a wrong ribbon.

Gerd Becker Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 (edited) Gentlemen, another nice May 2005 pic of a Cavalier:Thats a most interesting photo, Auke.

His Merit-Medal, RS & RB #2 might be long service awards for 10, 15 & 20 years in service. It should be not so difficult to find out his identity .The "Cavalier" at the right received also a Motherland 3cl (!), which is a rather rare award for GPW-NCOs. Due to his awards, it seems, that he did not promote to an officers rank. I have never read about an NCO, who got a Motherland .Best regardsChristian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed_Haynes Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 Frankly, I do see it as ungentlemanly when you post photos and a request for information (as "slava" did) and then say, "OK, I know now", and say no more, share no results.

Christian Zulus Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 Gentlemanly ...Dear Jan,if you would have read the posting in this thread from another GMIC-"Club Host", Ed Haynes, Frankly, I do see it as ungentlemanly when you post photos and a request for information (as "slava" did) and then say, "OK, I know now", and say no more, share no results. Frankly, one would be quite justified in being disinclined to help such a person.you might understand, why some GMIC-members are not so happy with the behaviour of a certain person, who could identify some Cavaliers, but doesn't like to share the results with the GMIC-community.O.K., Jan, you are right, that this might not be the approbriate section at GMIC to discuss our problems in the public.Sorry ....

Wild Card Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Frankly, I do see it as ungentlemanly when you post photos and a request for information (as "slava" did) and then say, "OK, I know now", and say no more, share no results. Frankly, one would be quite justified in being disinclined to help such a person.I would like to second the above statement by Ed Haynes, in that I have learned much from questions posed by other members. The point being that when a certain member posts a question, it does not mean that other members are not interested in the answer.At the same time, on the rare occassion that I have been able to contribute an answer or supporting information, I have done so for the benefit of the forum community, not just the one member who asked.Thank you,Wild Card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
