Subject: LL-L Symbols<br></font><div><span><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif">While walking on Prospect Mira in Moscow past Fiday some youngsters were distributing silky ribbons with orange and black strokes. I undersdood they were linked to the festivities of May 9th (end of WWII), but I saw some military already wearing them now. Is this the equivalent for WWII with the red poppies one wears in the UK in November for WWI.</font></span></div>
<div><span><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Does anybody kwow what the colors orange (yellow? gold?) and black mean? Are these ribbons also used in other countries?</font></span></div><div><span></span><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif"> </font></div>

<div style="margin:0in 0in 0pt"><font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif">PS. The knowledge of English is very poor in Moscow, even in hotels. In the metro it is a puzzle to find out what is the best ticket for the number of rides one plans in one's timeframe.</font></div>
