The founding date of the regular Russian fleet is considered to be October 20, 1696. A large amount of time and effort was spent on making the fleet a reliable defender of state borders, powerful and strong. 300 years later, by Decree of the President of the Russian Federation, a medal was established dedicated to the anniversary of this memorable event - “300 years of the Russian Fleet”.

Medal "300 years of the Russian Navy"

Along with the medal, a provision was added to the decree about who could be awarded, and its actual description.

Regulations on the medal

Despite the fact that the medal is anniversary, not everyone was awarded it. In connection with such a date as the 300th anniversary of the Russian fleet, those who met one of the following requirements could receive a medal:

• It was necessary to be navy personnel who had state awards and served 10 years in naval aviation or 29 years in other naval units.
• Be naval personnel who took part in World War II against the Nazis or Japanese: officers, generals, warrant officers and reserve sailors. And also those dismissed from the border troops or armed forces of the Russian Federation, the USSR, who were awarded state awards and served the same number of years in the relevant structures.
• Ship personnel who were engaged in supporting fleets, as well as research fleets, including civilian ones, subject to other state awards and having worked on the ship for more than 15 years.
• Designers, heads of scientific and educational institutions, bureaus, laboratories, management of the shipbuilding industry, workers engaged in the construction and repair of ships, provided they have worked for more than 20 years and have other state awards.
• The heads of governing bodies related to the fleet could be awarded a medal in connection with such a date as the 300th anniversary of the fleet, if they had state awards and had served for more than twenty years.

Type of medal

The medal is worn on the left side of the chest, located immediately after the anniversary medal “65 years of victory in the Great Patriotic War.” The anniversary medal “300 years of the Russian Navy” was designed by the artist of the St. Petersburg Mint Baklanov. More than 150 thousand people received the award on the eve of the 300th anniversary of the Russian fleet. The medal was considered a state award until 2010, when it was removed from the system. Therefore, a reserve soldier is not entitled to additional salary and benefits, if available.

Certificate for the medal

If we talk about the appearance of the medal, it has a round shape, a little more than three centimeters in diameter. There is a border along the edge of the medal on both sides. Made of tombac, an alloy of copper and zinc, coated with silver. The obverse features a portrait of Tsar Peter I, looking to the left, and the silhouette of the Admiralty behind him. At the top there is an inscription along the circle “300 years of the Russian Navy”.

The reverse also contains the dates: the year the fleet was founded and the year the coin was made; below are branches of oak and laurel and a pair of crossed anchors. The medal is connected to a brass block through an eyelet and a ring. The block has the shape of a pentagon and is trimmed with a white and blue striped ribbon. The medal does not have a number, as it is an anniversary medal.

There were three options for making a medal for the tercentenary of the Russian fleet:

• The first option belongs to the Moscow Mint. Contains the corresponding “MMD” stamp.
• The second version was manufactured in St. Petersburg. The stamp was on the ear and contained the letters “LMD”.
• The third option was made of silver. It has the mark of the Moscow Mint and is very rare.

The “300th Anniversary of the Russian Fleet” medal, as traditionally, was accompanied by a certificate. It had a standard appearance and contained the name of the medal, its image, surname, first name and patronymic of the recipient, date and signature.

Nowadays it is not awarded; it is gradually fading into history. It is almost impossible to buy such a medal, because gentlemen and their relatives prefer to keep it as a keepsake. Although sometimes some copies are still found at auctions. The medal was last sold at a Wolmar auction for just under 600 rubles.

300th anniversary of the Russian fleet

October 20, 1696 is considered to be not only the day of the birth of the fleet, but also the border coast guard, transport and river, fishing fleet, shipbuilding industry, as well as marine science. The celebration began with the laying of flowers at the monument to its founder, Tsar Peter I. In addition, during the celebration of the anniversary, a monument was unveiled and commemorative coins were issued.

The monument in honor of the anniversary was opened on July 27, 1996 in the city of Sevastopol. It is a stele, which is lined with gray granite and has a round opening with a diameter of 2.74 meters. An anchor with a chain is fixed in the stele, the shape and dimensions of which correspond to the Admiralty anchor from the times of the founding of the fleet. The stele is also crossed by the inscriptions “There will be a Russian fleet” and “300 years of the Russian fleet”.

The 300th anniversary of the Russian fleet was also celebrated by issuing six commemorative coins and one coin-like token. Now the coins are sold in sets and cost approximately 20 thousand rubles. Issued in denomination: 1; 5; 10; 20; 50; 100 - and had a similar obverse, which was represented by the image of a double-headed eagle. Each coin had its own reverse, with the exception of the inscription at the top “300 years of the Russian Navy.” The anniversary coin-like token depicted Peter I.

At the time the medal was issued, it was a state award; now, after the abolition of this status, it is of value only as a memory for its owner. However, the latest rare specimen, made of silver, is in demand among collectors.

Questions

1.1. Vadim, good afternoon!
Having the “300 Years of the Russian Navy” medal gives you the right to receive the title of “military service veteran”, provided that the total duration of military service is 20 years or more.
The title can also be obtained if a serviceman becomes disabled due to injury, concussion, injury or illness received in connection with the performance of military service duties.
These requirements apply to military personnel transferred from military service to the reserve (retirement).

2. Is a Veteran of Labor entitled to an additional pension for the 300th Anniversary of the Russian Navy medal?

2.1. Good afternoon. No awards provide any supplements to your pension. For the award, you were given the title of labor veteran, and you have benefits.

3.1. ---Hello, does the Medal for 300 years of the Russian Navy give the right to an increase in pension? - No, of course, it’s just an anniversary medal. Good luck to you and all the best.

4. Does the right to receive a Veteran of Labor certificate give the 300th anniversary of the Russian Navy medal?

4.1. No, it doesn't.
The title "Veteran of Labor" is awarded to:

Citizens of the Russian Federation who have a place of residence in St. Petersburg, have been awarded orders or medals of the USSR or the Russian Federation and have the length of service necessary to be granted an old-age pension or a long-service pension;

Citizens of the Russian Federation who have a place of residence in St. Petersburg, have been awarded honorary titles of the USSR or the Russian Federation and have the length of service necessary to receive an old-age pension or a long-service pension;

Citizens of the Russian Federation who have a place of residence in St. Petersburg, who began working as a minor during the Great Patriotic War and have a work experience of at least 40 years for men and 35 years for women.

4.2. Your sign - the right to receive the title "Veteran of Labor of the Russian Federation" - does not give the right, but if you have the necessary experience, you can apply for the title "Veteran of Labor of St. Petersburg", for which I suggest you study the Law of St. Petersburg No. 447- 70 of October 9, 2006 “On the procedure and conditions for conferring the title “Veteran of Labor”

5. The employee is on vacation with subsequent retirement. In the work book, an entry was made about dismissal due to retirement. Should his sick leave be paid (staying on sick leave during vacation) and how then is the entry made in the work book, because the vacation is extended, and the dismissal due to retirement is “shifted”. Thank you.

5.1. Hello Olga. Sick leave is unambiguously paid, even for the period in which, by order and according to the entry in the labor record, he no longer worked. By the way, if an employee does not find a job within six months after dismissal, sick leave is paid for by the employer from his last place of work. As for the employment record itself, it is standard and does not depend on this situation; another question is, at what date should an employee be fired? This question is answered by Letter of the Federal Service for Labor and Employment dated September 5, 2006 N 1551-6
The employee has the right to terminate the employment contract by notifying the employer in writing two weeks in advance.
An employee can notify the employer of dismissal not only during the period of work, but also while on vacation and during a period of temporary disability. In this case, the date of the proposed dismissal may also fall within the specified periods.
The Labor Code does not contain any obstacles to filing a resignation letter of one's own free will in any form, including by sending it by mail. Thus, the employee can send a corresponding application to the employer, for example, by registered mail.
The rule set out in Article 81 of the Code, according to which the dismissal of an employee during the period of temporary disability and while on vacation is not allowed, applies only to cases of dismissal at the initiative of the employer.
Thus, dismissal can be made after the expiration of the period established by part 1 of Article 80 of the Code, or within the period specified in the employee’s application. It should be borne in mind that before the expiration of the notice period for dismissal, the employee has the right to withdraw his application at any time. Dismissal in this case is not carried out unless another employee is invited in his place in writing, who, in accordance with this Code and other federal laws, cannot be denied an employment contract.
