Gordon Craig Posted December 14, 2007 Posted December 14, 2007 Gents,A friend has asked for my help in identifying the ribbons on a Hungarian Generals uniform that he just bought. The Hungarian ones were easy. Some of the foreign awards were also not too hard but there are three that have eluded me. I'll post a list below of the ribbons I have identified and welcome you commenst on the foreign ones but my main task to identify the three missing names. I've numbered the ribbons from left to right, as viewed by you, from 1 to 30. Here is the ribbon list.1-Szocialist Magyarorsz?g?rt ?rdemrend NMK#7152-Munk?s-Paszt Hatalom?rt Eml?k?rm NMK #7003-V?r?s Csikkag ?rdemrend (53-54?)

Ulsterman Posted December 15, 2007 Posted December 15, 2007 I suspect #30 and 27 are Vietnamese.the white one I suspect is Iranian.
Ulsterman Posted December 15, 2007 Posted December 15, 2007 Nope-close, but not SRV.....maybe Derg Ethiopian though.The Derg regime sent lots of its officers to Hungary for training at their academies.
Gordon Craig Posted December 15, 2007 Author Posted December 15, 2007 Ulsterman,Thanks for checking for me. Looks like these will be stinkers to identify.Regards,Gordon
