A common practice was also wearing St. George 4 cells. even after the preparation of 3 cells. (which was, in general, quite rare), contrary to the statutes of the medal.

Good day! Did awarded were not obliged to take a lower level in the Chapter of Orders?

"2285. Insignia returned to the chapter and in the case when one or the highest degree will be granted the same order, with the only exemption, which is defined below in this article. 2557 for the Order of St. Anne"

Serg987 from "unknown" young general, "East", almond-shaped eyes and nose, let's say "east", he has a little bit "of Pushkin's face"

  For this it should be guided by age and awards.

K-Maler, can you talk about the St George's cross, a soldier's reward?

Maybe. But this man was not a soldier, he was a hussar officer, may be higher. His name is A. Slepian, he died in about 1973 and his awards and memoirs sent to the museum (then located in a former mansion M. Kshesinskoy). He told, for example, that Nicholas II once a year like this distinguished gathering of officers at lunch: before each napkin was placed on a special silver instrument, ie and utensils, it was a gift - after each meal right here in this wipes all carried away with themselves. He himself had once been among those invited to ...

top medal - St. George 3rd class;
the right of it - the Order of St.. Vladimir 3 tbsp.

In the presence of cervical Russia Orders, in this case, the undisputed of the Order of St.. Vladimir, it is highly unlikely that foreign orders may be placed above.

Wladzislaw, 1. Kikin the portrait shows that the Order of St. George 3rd Cl. and the Red Eagle 2-nd st. very similar.
" on the neck of the Cross of the Order of St. George 3rd Cl. From under the side stand crosses of the Order of St. Vladimir 2-nd st. And the Prussian Order of Red Eagle 2-st century."

2. Not above, but close. Why, then the Prussian Order of Merit "(" Pour le Mérite ") above the Order of St. Anna 2-nd st. And the Order of Leopold in front of George 4st.?

My opinion: understanding that the Order of the Fatherland more came later, after the military company.
Well, we did three hundred generals did not choose one ...: confused:

"Pour le Merit" analog St. George was given for combat valor, the Order of St.. Anna had a wide range of awards, in addition, "Pour le Merit" this order of chivalry, so above.

"Order of Leopold" high imperial award, so it is high (though presented the general was awarded the Knight's Cross, but "Order of Leopold" - is the highest award of Austria). Awards Austria, Prussia, always higher, for example, Sweden, Bavaria, etc., it may seem strange, but it is true.
