The design of the new medal "For Courage" established by the President of Russia is shown

In the Russian Federation, a new award has been established - the medal "For Courage". The corresponding decree was previously signed by the head of state Vladimir Putin.

It is known that in the list of Russian medals the new award will take the third place - after the medal of the Order "For Merit to the Fatherland" and the medal "For Courage".

The medal "For Courage" will be awarded for courage and bravery shown during the performance of combat and other tasks to protect the Fatherland and state interests. The text of the decree also emphasizes that not only citizens of the Russian Federation, but also citizens of foreign states and stateless persons can be awarded the medal "For Courage" if they have shown courage and courage in defending Russia and its state interests.

Interestingly, the story The Russian Empire already knows such an award. Since 1807, Russia has been awarded the medal "For Courage". In 1850-1913. such a medal was awarded to people who distinguished themselves in battles from the regions of the Caucasus, Transcaucasia and Central Asia, in connection with which the bulk of those awarded were representatives of the Caucasian peoples. The medal "For Courage" in the Russian Empire was worn on the St. George ribbon.

Probably, the first recipients of the medal "For Courage" may be Russian servicemen and volunteers participating in a special military operation in Ukraine and distinguished themselves in the performance of assigned tasks. The appearance of the new medal is an example of the revival of the award traditions of the Russian state.

Maybe there will be enough medals to establish new ones? We have enough of what we have. For courage, my grandfather has the most expensive medal. And now the sovereign's awards are getting cheaper.

Do you know. that from the time of Serdyukov they began to award medals "For participation in the parade"? ..

[Adrian28]

This one was awarded last year. The first impression is pleasant. Then questions appeared. For what? And I went for this or did I still honor the memory of my great-grandfather? What is the medal that performs the function of a commemorative badge?
Preparing for the parade is not easy, people go mainly out of patriotic motives. And then another question. Grandfather received a medal for a hard fight, and I for going through the parade. It became disgusting to lie in the closet now.

Courage and bravery are synonyms! That is, they duplicated the existing award. I am sure that this remake will not have the same respect as "For Courage". Now even awards of a higher rank are depreciated by the fact that they began to be handed over to just anyone and it is not known for what. And freshly stamped - even more so!

[Ryaruav]

Alexander Yuryevich, you are right and the starfall will begin just like with merit to the fatherland (authority) there they awarded such specimens that it pulls three-story to speak out

[OlegV]

Bravery - a manifestation of courage, aimed, for example, at helping someone.
Courage - courage in battle or extreme situations, the ability to sacrifice, heroism.
The concepts are close, but there is a difference.
Courage usually means courage in battles (medel "For Courage").

[st25310]

Don't give cowards! Wrong name! He didn’t run away from the front, he’s already a brave man! Yes, even with degrees. One is brave, the other too, but not very much. Or the first time was brave, and the second time even braver. Somehow you need to choose a name that is more correct and specific.

[Sevastiec]

I just don't get it: what's the difference between bravery and bravery?

Maybe it’s enough to invent (((a medal for an order, an order for a medal ((((but are there services to the Fatherland of 1-2-3-4 degrees? Merit is either there or not. Return the awards of the USSR, I personally understood what a medal for Courage is or, for example, the Order of the Red Star, respected military awards.
..... But we hear simple and strict words:
"Combat is awarded the order ..."

This means that somewhere in the silence of the night
Bullets whistle again.
And that in this struggle, as in any war,
Life and death are always side by side.

This means that in this harsh battle
Your peer, fellow countryman, your neighbor
Protects your love and hope,
Your windows are welcoming light. (With)

[solar]

But are there merits to the Fatherland of 1-2-3-4 degrees? ... Return the awards of the USSR ...

There are.
Order of the Patriotic War 1-2 degrees (and then they also depreciated the military order, giving it to everyone as an anniversary one in 1985), Glory, Suvorov, Kutuzov, Bogdan Khmelnitsky 1-2-3 degrees, Ushakov, Nakhimov 1,2 degrees .

for example, the Order of the Red Star, respected military awards ....

There was such

In the period from June 4, 1944 to September 14, 1957, the Order of the Red Star was awarded for 15 years of service in the Red Army, Navy, internal affairs and state security agencies.

In the Russian Empire on August 10, 1913 was established St. George medal (with the inscription "For Courage"), which was included in Military Order of Saint George and was one step below the Insignia of the Military Order (George Cross).
St. George medal for Bravery was 4 degrees.

In 1917, after the overthrow of Nicholas 2, the image of the Emperor was replaced with St. George

The general awarding of the St. George medal was also practiced - the commander awarded the distinguished units from 2 to 5 medals for all - and already inside the company (hundreds, squadron or battery) at the general meeting, the medals were distributed to the most distinguished in the established order. In the navy, the number of medals allocated depended on the type of ship.

[Murmur 55]

In our country, for Merits to the Fatherland, they have, well, as it were, softer, in general, many have.

[Silver99]

All this awarded artistic trash fell over the hill, tk. they have no Fatherland, but only specie and food.

[Klaus8691]

In fact, how now to treat the awarded, who fled abroad, and the awards that were awarded to those who fled?! Ordinary hard workers never dreamed of such awards and they did not run away anywhere and there are no accounts abroad.

[Vasia]

Quote from Silver99

All this awarded artistic trash fell over the hill, tk. they have no Fatherland, but only specie and food.

And how many "artistic trash" out of the total number of holders of the Order "For Merit to the Fatherland" were dumped over the hill? Something fluently looked, everything is here. Maybe, of course, I didn’t notice, there are hundreds (maybe thousands) of surnames for all the years, I don’t know someone at all, but if there are, then a very small percentage.

[mark1]

Now it’s up to the commanders to figure it out - did the subordinate show courage or courage?

Well, that's... He went to the front line, so he showed courage. For this, you can get a medal on your chest.

[DymOk_v_dYmke]

Quote: mark1

What to understand? Anyone can be given "for courage" whose trousers are not soiled.

Courage - courage and determination in actions, the absence of fear of danger.

Quality is not associated with a feat, or at least with something for the benefit of the Fatherland.
Elite can be given immediately at birth. "By Genomic Qualities".

PS Lack of fear of danger is sometimes called "recklessness".
In contrast to the feat - overcoming conscious fear, sacrifice.

[Plate]

So reckless in all sorts of wars are always in use. They are the main demand. While a normal person will think about how to do everything in such a way so as not to die along the way, the turretless one will go on the attack alone, throw a grenade into the enemy’s trenches, go down there himself, methodically cut out half of the squad, after which he will threaten the remaining enemy platoon, which now a couple of dozen more like him will come, after which he will accept their general surrender. And only then, perhaps, will he realize that, in fact, he could die during his actions.

[solar]

Maybe so. Or maybe your story will be interrupted by

reckless alone will rise to the attack

and complete the task

a normal person will think about how he can do everything so as not to die along the way

A double impression ... The award should be ONLY for military success .. And not like the Star of the Hero was driven under the plinth with dubious awards

[Il'nur]

dubious awards

I also don’t understand why Shoigu and Gerasimov’s Star of the Hero, they shot down N-number of enemy aircraft with their heroism, making hundreds of sorties, and some openers of the mouth on the stage are given orders - this is generally a decrease in awards "below the plinth" , how many awardees have left the country and are throwing guan at the country and its citizens!

[Uncle lee]

The double impression.

There is a medal "For Courage", and a medal "For Military Merit"! What else to invent! And they won't give you a medal for cowardice! (the opposite of bravery!)

[fiberboard]

There is a medal, For Courage,,, there is,, For Military Merit,,, what else do you need? Well, except to establish this medal for rewarding singers or singers who have traveled somewhere. For example, Gazmanov's son was awarded, this medal would suit him. Or to the deputies of the State Duma, in the genus Rogozin, who wandered aimlessly in the front rear with the company until he fell under the hand. And the fighters should have ,, For Courage ,,. I would return the orders of the Red Star and the Red Banner of War. I would return the orders of Alexander Nevsky, Suvorov.

Why, how can you, they were issued during the times of the USSR, and in those days they did not release anything "except for galoshes" ... Instead of these glorious awards in the days of the USSR, which you mention, they issue newspeak, step by step crossing out historical memory USSR times...

[Il'nur]

One of the leberas slapped me (-), or the sharovary "you are not my brother" works, or the one who does not understand sarcasm ...
And the goloshes of the times of the USSR were of high quality, and the orders reflected the history of Russia, and reflected the contribution of our grandfathers in the Victory over the Nazis ...

[Olgerd Gediminovich]

Alexander Nevsky - Order of the current. The last time his statute was confirmed by Medvedev's decree of 2010.
But Suvorov - indeed, remained in the USSR. The last awards were in the 80s, as far as you know.

Yes, it is difficult to distinguish courage from courage! Poor smart soldiers!

I am completely confused in modern awards. Before, everything was clear, but now, in addition to the medal for Courage, there is also the Zhukov medal, the Suvorov medal, which are also awarded to children in the SVO zone, and now another medal has appeared.

[Ross xnumx]

The appearance of the new medal is an example of the revival of the award traditions of the Russian state.

The revival of the award traditions of the Russian state there will be a revision of those already awarded according to the principle: “hell knows what for” ... Too many “declarants” and other gentlemen and ladies have appeared in recent years, about whose merits they prefer not to talk about in a decent society ...

[senima56]

I like it. But why 2 degrees? How can there be "Courage of the 2nd degree?...." How then does it differ from "Courage of the 1st degree"? Here is the medal "For Courage" without any degrees, and everything is clear to everyone!

[Gardamir]

Can there be "Courage of the 2nd degree?

[Klaus8691]

As already indicated above, the merits to the Fatherland were also divided. They are apparently different and merit and courage. Why all of a sudden?!

[Andrey77]

For merit go next. But this is not a military order. But "for courage" quite. Let it be a medal. She is clearly below courage. But a direct competitor to ZBZ.

[NKT]

ZBZ has been gone for a long time, but what is the Zhukov and Suvorov medal in?

[German Brit]

there are soldiers there are generals, so it’s zapadlo to hang the same medal for our generals

The unrestrained and thoughtless inflation of the award system, the blurring of the criteria for awards and the general distribution of orders and medals for the slightest differences at all times was a sign of a deep crisis in society and the state.

I do not agree.
There were and should be medals marking participation in certain events.
Such as the "Medal for the Defense of Leningrad", for example.

[UAZ 452]

And who should be awarded the medal "For Courage", and who - "For Courage"? What is the fundamental difference between them?

[Andrey77]

The statute of the medal must be looked at. But the requirements for courage are very high. Therefore, she is still the best soldier's medal.

[Radical]

Yep, oil is oil. But this is not the most important thing. The new medal turned out to be ... two degrees - 1st and 2nd. Curiously, courage can be measured in degrees? Didn't it occur to those who "gave birth" to this award and to the one who established it? Here in the USSR it never occurred to anyone to evaluate "courage" in several degrees, as well as in liters, kilograms, and ... pounds! In addition, is the imagination of Russian heraldists really so limited that in addition to crosses on most state. awards of the Russian Federation nothing more to place?

[Andrey77]

Courage is still the most "cool" soldier's medal. It is very difficult to get it. In the crew of a tank / aircraft - it is impossible. Must be done in person. Aki is an action hero.

[Klaus8691]

You can also establish for ingenuity or dexterity, which is already there, it’s all right, beautiful marquise ...

[Andrey77]

"For Wisdom". But this is already an order for the highest command staff.

[Andrey77]

Nonsense. There is a medal "For Courage" - the highest soldier's medal. There is a ZBZ medal - for military / sexual merit. If a soldier is just like Rambo - there is an Order of Glory. Already 4 degrees. And now here it is. For courage. Already in 2 degrees. I hope this miracle will remain in the design, especially the ribbon of the medal... ambiguous.

[dump22]

There is a ZBZ medal - for military / sexual merit.

Now there is no such thing, it was only in the USSR.
But there are several other medals - Suvorov, Ushakov, Zhukov and Nesterov.

By the way, there is no Order of Glory now either, it has now been replaced by the Order of St. George.

[German Brit]

President Vladimir Putin established the medal "For Courage" in Russia. Shoigu was awarded No. 1. For sending T-55 tanks to counter the Leopards!

[Andrey77]

Refine the Leopard model. The two didn't go anywhere. Ones are the same age as the T-55

And the enemy in battle, do you think, is chosen through a special application?

"In 1850-1913, such a medal was awarded to people who distinguished themselves in battles from the regions of the Caucasus, Transcaucasia and Central Asia, in connection with which the majority of those awarded were representatives of the Caucasian peoples."
They wrote some nonsense! My grandfather, back in Russian-Japanese, had four St. George's crosses and four medals "For Courage"! This was called - a full cavalier or a cavalier of a full St. George's bow! Author, read the history of Russia more carefully and do not make hasty stupid conclusions.

[Andrey77]

You are easy to figure out. Few received 4 soldier's crosses

I do not understand the indignation of the local inhabitants. Well, he introduced such a medal, so what? Speak in your favorite union was not? But no, there was a whole bag of medals, not counting departmental ones. We don't have many governments at the moment. medals pieces 20.

[Ivan Ivanov]

Mr. President would better understand how it turned out that the country's leading university, MIPT, which trains personnel for the defense industry, invites Mr. Muratov, a fake Nobel laureate known for his pro-Ukrainian stance, to a meeting with students. It turns out that he was not even given a "foreign agent". And he invited a comrade, Mr. Livanov, who successfully ruined the Ministry of Defense until 2016. How he ended up as the rector of a leading university is another question. Kapets, our fight against the 5th column is "effective".

In historical terms, the author of the article did not bother to dive into the topic even at the level of Wikipedia. Apparently it was important only to be the first to convey information ...
From the point of view of the institution, I agree with many who spoke out - complete nonsense.
Before Soviet power, there was a medal "For Courage" of four degrees. Each degree of which reflected the feats shown in wartime or in peacetime. In the USSR, the medals "For Courage" and "For Military Merit" were established. Now it turns out some kind of mess - in fact, we have two essentially identical awards (although, of course, you need to look at the statuses). Alternatively, it can be assumed that the new medal will replace the medal of the Order "For Merit to the Fatherland" 1st and 2nd degrees with swords. All the same, the swords in the current reward system are implemented disgustingly. Apparently, they did not bother much with the design of the front side of the medal - they repeated the drawing of the medal "For Saving the Perishing" only they added crossed swords. The ribbon is composite - St. George's and, as far as I can see, the Order of Courage. A rather controversial decision, because. in Russian practice, until 1917, only medals established to reward participants in "military campaigns" had composite ribbons.

[dump22]

The ribbon is composite - St. George's and, as far as I can see, the Order of Courage. Quite a controversial decision.

Not the first time used.
Look at the Zhukov medal ribbon.

But really, how, fundamentally, courage differs from courage?

[iljael]

It would be better if the new design of the bombed-out railway border crossings on the Polish and Romanian borders was shown, the people would be more joyful.

[dump22]

How is the medal "For Courage" fundamentally different from this one?
It's not clear somehow.
After all, the medal "For Courage" was also awarded to foreigners and civilians.

But there is also the Suvorov medal (awarded for personal courage and courage), the Ushakov medal, the Zhukov medal (awarded for courage, dedication and personal courage) and the Nesterov medal.
