The St George (Georgian) ribbonThe Georgian ribbon emerged as part of the Order of St. George, established in 1769 as the highest military decoration of Imperial Russia and re-established in 1998 by the Russian Federation. The ribbon of the Order of Glory, an order of the Soviet Union that was established on November 8, 1943, was orange with three black stripes – the same as that of the Cross of St. George. The Order of Glory was awarded to non-commissioned officers and rank-and-file of the armed forces, as well as junior lieutenants of the air force, for bravery in the face of the enemy.
Since the 60th anniversary of the Victory Day (May 9, 2005), the ribbon is freely worn by civilians as an act of commemoration and remembrance.
The St George ribbon is the attribute of plenty of military awards of Russian Empire, the USSR and modern Russia. Its colors — black and orange – stand for “smoke and flame” and are the sign of personal bravery of a soldier, displayed in a battle.
