The Order of Suvorov was originally a Soviet award established on July 29, 1942[1] (during World War II) by decision of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR. It was created to reward senior army personnel for exceptional leadership in combat operations. The Order of Suvorov was divided into three classes: 1st class, 2nd class, and 3rd class. Georgi Zhukov became the first recipient of the Order of Suvorov 1st class[2] on January 28, 1943. Award description[edit]The Order of Suvorov is a 40 mm-wide (1.6 in) gold-plated cross pattée with silver rays protruding from the center outwards between the arms of the cross to form a square. The distance from the tip of the silver rays to the tip of the opposite rays is 35 mm. The obverse center has a circular convex medallion bearing the gilded bust of Alexander Suvorov, in profile, facing left. Just below the bust of Suvorov, on the medallion lower edge, crossed branches of oak and laurel. At the upper part of the medallion, following its circumference, the inscription in red-enamelled embossed letters "ALEXANDER SUVOROV" (in Russian: АЛЕКСАНДР СУВОРОВ). The reverse is bare except for the award serial number.[8]The Order is suspended by a ring through the award's suspension loop to a standard Russian pentagonal mount covered by a 24 mm-wide (0.94 in) green silk moiré ribbon with a 5 mm-wide (0.20 in) orange central stripe.[8]The Russian Federation order of precedence dictates that the Order of Suvorov is to be worn on the left side of the chest, and in the presence of other orders of the Russian Federation, is to be located immediately after the Order of Alexander Nevsky.[9]First ClassSecond ClassThird ClassRibbons (1942–2010)
