Soviet star medal order badge Red Banner For excellent felling cavalry (2220)

  

For excellent felling for cavalry. The badge "For excellent felling for cavalry and horse artillery" is an award that existed in the troops of the Red Army at the dawn of the USSR.

The horseshoe, which was a conditional symbol of the cavalry troops, served as the basis for the sign, and immediately spoke about who and for what the award was presented. Outwardly, a red enamel star was superimposed on the horseshoe, in the center of which a hammer and a sickle were crossed in a white enamel circle. The star also featured images of a spade with a blue flag and a pair of checkers. A horse's head was engraved under the star.

Along the entire horseshoe in one line is written: For an excellent cutting. The badge "For excellent felling for cavalry and horse artillery" was made of either bronze or copper. The award was established in 1928, when the importance of the cavalry in the Soviet troops could not be overestimated, and it played a crucial role in the victories over the Asian militarists. The badge was fastened to the chest of gentlemen with a screw, and painted with enamel.
