paja Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 You are welcome! About those 4 medals, first 2 I am not sure about but the last two are definitely Slovakian. I think one commemorates 70 years of General military hospital, other could perhaps be for 70 years of the Slovak National Uprising but I really don't know... Photos from the same site, made during last year's visit to Slovakia when medals were awarded. http://gmic.co.uk/uploads/monthly_03_2015/post-7937-0-75340200-1425560215.jpghttp://gmic.co.uk/uploads/monthly_03_2015/post-7937-0-78964900-1425560241.jpg

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. Couple of days ago I stumbled upon these photos, here we can see exactly how the ribbon bar device looks like. Source: http://europeana1914-1918.eu/en/contributions/20147

paja Posted May 1, 2016 Posted May 1, 2016 You're welcome, that was the first time I found a decent photo of that ribbon. Then couple of days later I saw an ad for this.
paja Posted May 14, 2017 Posted May 14, 2017 (edited) I stumbled upon this interesting photo on Serbian Armed Forces' website. Special Brigade was decorated with Order of Merits in Defense and Security 3rd class on September 29, 2016 (10 years since it's creation). We can see Order of the War Banner 1st class awarded to 72nd Special Brigade on June 16, 2000 and Order of National Hero awarded to 63rd Parachute Brigade on October 19, 1999. Special Brigade in it's current form was created on September 29, 2006 out of 72nd Special Brigade, 63rd Paratroop Brigade, Cobra anti-terrorist squad and parts of the 82nd Marine Center.

paja Posted May 14, 2017 Posted May 14, 2017 Here's one more where we can see the other side of the flag. Brigade level units received new, consecrated flags on April 23, 2015, Serbian Armed Forces Day, exactly 200 years after the Second Serbian Uprising.
paja Posted May 14, 2017 Posted May 14, 2017 224th Electronic Warfare Center was also awarded with Order of Merits in Defense and Security 3rd class last year. We can see one more Order of the War Banner but this time 3rd class on the unit's flag.
paja Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 Order of the Yugoslav Star 2nd class, Belorussian lieutenant general Nikolai Cherginets (Мікала́й Чаргіне́ц).
