Military awards are a symbol of valor, courage and courage of those who deserve them with their military labor. Orders and medals on military uniforms look very impressive. In addition to the awards, there are also order ribbons that look like small-sized planks covered with fabric. Such order blocks were introduced into the Soviet army during the years of World War II.
What is an order block
The order strap (block) is a device designed to be worn on uniforms of the order ribbon. The basis of the design is a rectangular substrate, which can be made of metal or dense fabric. The fabric bar is more convenient in the sense that it allows you to choose the color of the product in accordance with the shade of uniforms.
The metal sash strap is attached to the form using a pin, which is located on the back of the product. A fabric-based strap is simply sewn to the clothes in the right place, namely on the left side of the chest.
If there are a lot of awards, the straps are not individually worn, but are made together, securing in a common block.
Separate tapes are attached to the block in a strictly defined order, which is regulated by the documents of the relevant department, for example, the Ministry of Defense or the Ministry of the Interior. The higher the reward in its status, the higher it should be located in the block. Each award has its own ribbon color. Some of the highest awards, for example, Hammer and Sickle and Gold Star, do not have separate orders.
