A SOVIET RUSSIAN ORDER OF GLORY THIRD CLASS
Орден Славы (СССР)
Origin: Soviet Union, established in 1943.
It was awarded to soldiers and non-commissioned officers of the Red Army as well as to aviation junior lieutenants, for bravery in the face of the enemy.
While the overwhelming majority of all Order of Glory awards was for combat valor in the Second World War (or the Great Patriotic War as it is known across the countries of the former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics), there are documented instances of awards of the order's lowest class - its third class - for post-war Soviet military operations. Numbering among these were Order of Glory Third Class awards authorized for Soviet operations in support of the Korean War from 1950-1953 as well as for the Soviet military intervention in Hungary in the fall of 1956. A small number of Order of Glory Third Class awards was also made in connection with armed border clashes with the People's Republic of China in 1969.
The badge of the "Order of Glory" was a five-pointed star with a central medallion. The order's third class was made entirely of silver. The central medallion featured the Spasskaya Tower of the Kremlin, with a red enamelled five-pointed star at its top and a red enamelled scroll at the bottom bearing the word "GLORY" (Russian: СЛАВА). Laurel branches on each side along the medal circumference stopped just short of the red star. The reverse had the Cyrillic inscription for "USSR" (Russian: СССР) within a ring with a raised rim. The award serial number was either stamped (first class awards) or engraved above the ring on the reverse of the star's upper arm.
The Order is suspended by a ring through the award's suspension loop to a standard Russian pentagonal mount covered by a 24 mm-wide silk moiré ribbon of St George.
Height with suspension loop 50 mm. width 45 mm.
Condition report: generally good condition for the age. Small scratches. Ribbon in very good condition.
