JBFloyd Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 The text is not the problem. The problem is who issued it and why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TacHel Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 (edited) Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations (EMERCOM). Medal "Participant in emergency humanitarian operations". Established on 27 December 1995 by ministerial order 885. Awarded to individuals or organisations for their involvement in humanitarian relief operations and contributions to the organization of such future actions as well as for dedication and courage. The medal is also awarded with English text in lieu of Russian. This is the only medal of this ministry NOT on a pentagonal mount, probably because it is awarded to so many foreigners. No idea why they slapped "UN" on it... Not mentioned in any of the texts. Edited November 16, 2017 by TacHel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
