T0deswanderer Posted October 12 Posted October 12 What could be the reason for the Cross of Military Merit to be delivered with an alternative red/black ribbon ( similar to the one on the Commander of the Armed Forces Gold Cross )?

I think this is a version of the medal, the ribbon is most likely from another award.

But there is no explanation about use of these ribbons on modern Cross of Military Merit use. Edited October 15 by mboro

Still hunting other ministry awards and then there are all the cities, etc. There will be a PDF eventually. I may even investigate print on demand for those who prefer a 'dead tree' book. That way you don't have the expense of a print run and the real advantage is that it never goes out of print! And you can add new stuff when it appears, just change the master PDF. Are the Facebook medal groups easy to find? Maybe I shall try it next year. You’re missing the Awards of the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, not to be confused with the Awards of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine ( you have those ). You can find those here https://uht-org-ua.translate.goog/forum/viewforum.php?f=154&sid=cf54997e9089fa6806c3ad46eca43019&_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=de&_x_tr_pto=wapp&_x_tr_sch=http and here https://uk-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Відзнаки_Головнокомандувача_Збройних_сил_України?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-US&_x_tr_pto=wapp the ones you have are from before June 2022 ( The post of Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was separated from the post of Chief of the General Staff on March 27, 2020 in accordance with Art. 8 of the Law of Ukraine "On the Armed Forces of Ukraine". Until June 2022, the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces used the Chief of the General Staff badge system. The honorary badges of the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are established in accordance with the Order of the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine No. 411 of December 23, 2021 "On the honorary badges of the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine", which finally entered into force on June 1, 2022: ) they look like picture yiu can see the ‘for the help of the army’ that has been shared here is part of that batch, there are also pictures of actual medals not symbol pictures on the first link, sometimes with recepients, ive seen these being handed out at least since September 2022 i’m not sure about the order of wear with the 4 crosses, sometimes it says Brave,Steel,Silver,Gold sometimes Brave,Gold,Silver,Steel though On 31/08/2024 at 02:30, Rocket said: My son Andrew Peters was finally awarded the Order for Courage III Class for his service and sacrifice in helping defend the people of Ukraine. I attended the award ceremony on August 29th in Washington DC. August 29th is the "National Memorial Day of Defenders of Ukraine". A total of 7 families of fallen American volunteers attended the event. Needless to say, it was a very emotional event with not a dry eye in the house. As a token of my appreciation I gave the ambassador one of Andrew's spare U.S. Army dog tags. She got quite emotional by the gesture, as did I. I don't know if or when Andrew might receive any other awards. Maybe once this terrible war is finally over. John The medal in the back left is the combatants cross of the commander in chief of the armed forces the seven in front are order for courage III, no idea on the one back right
Megan Posted October 27 Posted October 27 Thank you for the links...Do intend to include them, but have been doing other nations recently and time for medals is limited by work being busy! Some day, some day... 🤓
mboro Posted October 27 Posted October 27 That 'last one' is the Decoration of Honor of the Commander of the Ground Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine "For Service". https://uk.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Нагрудний_знак_«За_службу»&wprov=rarw1 😎
