TacHel Posted August 23, 2011 Author Posted August 23, 2011 You lost a hand and an eye saving the life on young children from a terrorist bombing? WOW! Stop being so modest! You are a hero in EVERY sense of the word!! УКАЗ Президента РФ от 07.02.1996 N 163 "О НАГРАЖДЕНИИ ГОСУДАРСТВЕННЫМИ НАГРАДАМИ РОССИЙСКОЙ ФЕДЕРАЦИИ ОРДЕНОМ МУЖЕСТВА ЦАРЕНКО Максима Владимировича, студента Винницкого педагогического института, Украина. Presidential Decree of 07.02.1996 N 163 "On conferring state awards of the Russian Federation" ORDER OF COURAGE TSARENKO Maxim Vladimirovich, a student of Vinnytsia State Pedagogical Institute, Ukraine. I salute you my friend!
Hauptmann Posted August 23, 2011 Posted August 23, 2011 I too salute you! (Just wish we had a salute icon... I brought this up years ago but still don't have one... sigh.) You are indeed far too modest... but all true heroes are just that. Those kids were able to grow up and have families of their own because of your sacrifice... that is no small thing. Who knows... one of them may some day cure cancer or save the world. A great deed indeed! Dan :cheers:
TacHel Posted August 23, 2011 Author Posted August 23, 2011 I just found an article on you! You also received the Ukrainian Star For Courage (serial no. 002)!!! Which grade was it?? 1st, 2nd, 3rd?
Naxos Posted August 23, 2011 Posted August 23, 2011 (edited) ... Stop being so modest! You are a hero in EVERY sense of the word!! I agree and repeat: Maxim Vladimirovich, you are a hero in every sense of the word! Edited August 23, 2011 by Naxos
Chris Liontas Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 I agree and repeat: Maxim Vladimirovich, you are a hero in every sense of the word! Wow -- I must agree.
Chris Liontas Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 ADDENDA: The Order of Lenin was awarded to civilians for outstanding services rendered to the State, to members of the armed forces for exemplary service, to those who promoted friendship and cooperation between peoples and in strengthening peace, and for other meritorious services to the Soviet state and society. The only modern Russian award that comes close to it is the Order of St Andrew the Apostle. The Order Of Saint Andrew is the highest military and civilian order of Russia. It is awarded for "exceptional services leading to the prosperity and glory of Russia". Tsarenko, my friend, I give you the point here... After a careful review of the award criteria of all of the top Soviet and modern Russian awards, you are correct. The Soviet equivalent of the Russian Federation's Order of Valour is the Order of the Red Banner. Did Russia re constitute the Order of St Andrew?? I was not award that had been brought back! Another beautiful award!
JimZ Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 Tsarenko, I am personally honoured to know that there are people like you who go way beyond their civic duties to assist others. You are a shining example to your generation. Your act of selfless courage fills me with admiration. Jim :cheers:
Herr General Posted August 24, 2011 Posted August 24, 2011 Tsarenko! I salute you! Thanks for your work!
tsarenko1975 Posted August 25, 2011 Posted August 25, 2011 Many thanks for good words, dear friends! If you can wait a day, I'll try show Ukrainian Star. And now...
Chris Boonzaier Posted August 25, 2011 Posted August 25, 2011 Oooooooffff.... Super stuff! My hat off to you!
TacHel Posted August 26, 2011 Author Posted August 26, 2011 (edited) Maxim, where are the pictures of the Ukrainian Star? :Cat-Scratch: Edited August 26, 2011 by TacHel
TacHel Posted August 29, 2011 Author Posted August 29, 2011 Tsarenko posted a pic of his Ukrainian award here: http://gmic.co.uk/index.php/topic/50899-ukrainian-star-for-courage/ Tsarenko, any chance of seeing a picture of you wearing both awards?
tsarenko1975 Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 Oooops... During 15 years I didn't wear these orders. I'll try make a photo.
TacHel Posted August 29, 2011 Author Posted August 29, 2011 (edited) Not even once to a nice night club? Women love heroes! They'd be real babe magnets! Nice monument in your town! Edited August 30, 2011 by TacHel
TacHel Posted July 30, 2012 Author Posted July 30, 2012 I have just found out that saddly, Hero of Russia Lt Col Anatoly Lebed died in an automobile accident on April 27th. http://www.1tv.ru/sp.../si5791/fi15339
Gaffken Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 I heard about this back at the time, too, unfortunately. Motorcycle accident in Moscow. Hit the curb, flipped forward, and died of massive head injuries. I remember seeing a lot of press about it, but few details, if any, on any official ceremonies...
