slava1stclass Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 To all: Although Soviet civil awards are not my forte, this picture caught my eye. In it the recipient is seen wearing the Medal for Valiant Labor with the first variant "triangle" hangar.Regards,slava1stclass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stogieman Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 That's a great photograph. What is the badge above the medal? Can you blow that up a bit? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimj Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Yes, very nice photo. It's harder to find good civilian photos with awards than military ones.Without a close up I would guess Excellence in Socialist Competition, Narkomat of Oil./Kim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riley1965 Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Chuck,WOW!!! The badge and presentation box and picture. Quite a group!!! Doc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck In Oregon Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 You know, on further review, that doesn't appear to be the same badge. I thought I could flesh out that photo a bit with these images, but I think I was wrong. Mine is, I believe, an Excellent Worker - Narkomat of Oil, not a Socialist Competition badge. My mistake and I apologize.Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfred Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 This seems to be the badge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mossy Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Slava, Very nice photo! Was this photo on it's own, or did it come as part of a group? Alfred, is that a different version of the 'Excellence in Socialist Competition, Narkomat of Oil' badge Chuck showed, which is a great looking set by the way!Sam.
