paja Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 (edited) General Dragoljub Ojdanić wearing the Order of Freedom. Ojdanić and General Nebojša Pavković were the only recipients of the FRY Order of Freedom. He is also wearing decorations from the socialist era and decorations of the Association for preserving traditions of Serbian liberation wars until 1918 (http://www.dzntors1918.rs/index_eng.htm). One of their decorations, Order of Serbian Warrior (Oрден српског ратника) can be seen around his neck. I am not sure but I think that General Ojdanić is also recipient of the Russian Medal for Combat Cooperation (first medal on the right). When it comes to General Pavković I am absolutely sure that he received that Russian decoration. Edited November 3, 2013 by paja

new world Posted November 4, 2013 Posted November 4, 2013 Too bad that you are missing ribbon bar device on the 8th ribbon, do you perhaps know how it looked like? I haven't got a clue... 0000.jpg0001.JPG Yes, I am aware of missing device. But I decided to keep it the way it is, thinking that the General lost the device while wearing the bar. It adds some character to it. I am not sure how it's supposed to look like.
paja Posted November 4, 2013 Posted November 4, 2013 (edited) Thanks new world, your ribbon bar is even better, has one ribbon more than mine Actually I got his summer shirt with the ribbon bar sewn on it and one more pair of shoulder boards shown above. Perhaps that device looks like the order or logo of the association... Edited November 4, 2013 by paja
paja Posted November 4, 2013 Posted November 4, 2013 (edited) Actually the device really looks like the order, I just read that in an article I found on my hard drive. Here is how the order looks like. It was instituted in 1994 and this is the first variant. From 2003 the order was worn on different kind of ribbon - red blue and white one (Colors of the Serbian flag). Each one was numbered and 110 of them were awarded until the end of 2000. Edited November 4, 2013 by paja
