Awards and Decorations

[edit]

I am not sure about one of the medals worn by Admiral Soni. I have seen photos where he has worn the Operation Vijay Medal and some other photos where he has worn Operation Parakram Medal in its place. However, I have not seen a photo of him wearing both the medals together. I will try and get clarity on this and update the ribbons displayed on the page.

VP101 The images here([1], [2]) shows Operation Parakram Ribbon. The images with medals here ([3], [4]) shows the Operation Vijay Medal(or so it seems from the medal ribbon). Adamgerber80 (talk) 20:15, 1 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Very strange, isn't it? Medals aren't interchangeable! I honestly have no idea what to do here! VP101 (talk) 10:32, 2 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
VP101 Yes this indeed is weird but not unheard of. There were reports that there is a shortage of medals and thus he could be compensating by using a different medal (seems unlikely for somebody at his position). I would stick with the ribbon aka the Parakram medal for now since that is the most clear and easily visible one. Adamgerber80 (talk) 22:01, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
