Георгиевская лента - символ Дня Победы Наш многовековой символ, олицетворяющий подвиг русских воинов-героев на полях сражений, в кровавых рукопашных боях Орденами и медалями, украшенными гвардейской (георгиевской) ленточкой, награждались воины за личный подвиг на поле боя: зазахват знамени врага, оказание помощи раненым под пулями неприятеля, спасение знамени своей части, проникновение первым в укрытие врага и ликвидацию его гарнизона. Героев, получивших этот почетный знак, сразу же повышали в должности. Награждались также героически сражавшиеся воинские подразделения.
Георгиевская ленточка присутствует в следующих знаках отличия:
· Орден Святого Георгия Победоносца (с 1769 г., Екатерина II; с 1992 г.) · Георгиевский крест (с 1807 г.; с 1992 г.) · Георгиевская медаль "За храбрость" (с 1913 г.) · Орден Славы (с 1943) · Медаль "За победу над Германией в Великой Отечественной Войне" (1945 г.) · Медаль "За взятие Берлина" (с 1945 г.) · На двойных петлицах мундиров штаб- и обер-офицеров Русской армии · На петлицах мундиров нижних чинов Русской армии · На наградном офицерском оружии в Русской армии · На бескозырках матросов Гвардейского экипажа русской императорской гвардии и матросов кораблей, награждённых Георгиевским флагом · На Георгиевских знаменах (штандартах) (с 1806) · На Георгиевских трубах в Русской армии
