RE: Russian soldiers, WW2 (photo52)

I don't like people wearing medals they were not awarded. It happens here at our ANZAC Day commemorations, the families of those who served wear them and march in the parade. I'm not supportive of it as I feel those people don't comprehend what that person went through to be awarded the medal in the first place. I know why it's done, I just don't agree. The only person who should be wearing an awarded medal is the person who performed the actions of earning it.

Galen, thanks for your comment. I agree with you, but I consider this is a different case. our folks wear the badge as a patriot war symbolics, they dont even guess and dont want to know this badge - is award, they werent awarded. really low.

It's just decorative I guess you mean right? That's cool, not an issue. I was just thinking out loud I guess. :)
