Dear colleagues, I will present you the Cross "For Service in the Caucasus." They were awarded officers and soldiers who served and fought in Chechnya.
"Golden" Cross for officers.

"Silver" cross for sergeants and privates

The most interesting thing is that the "golden" officer cross is found much more often than the "silver" soldier's cross. This is explained by the fact that many sergeants and soldiers specifically bought themselves in the "golden" crosses to look "more serious".

So it is more a veteran association award?

Absolutely, nothing official in that one.

Dear colleagues, you are both mistaken!
The sign is official. It was established by order of the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation No. 367 of 08/17/2001
