Title: Military uniform identification.
Post by: Petrarch of the VBB on March 06, 2003, 01:55:03 pm

Anyone know of a site with images of Soviet military uniforms? I ask because I have a hat (parade hat sort of thing) and I want to knwo what it is.

It is a blue-green colour, if anyone has knowledge of such things.

It is a peaked cap, blue-green in colour, with the logo aboven the visor. the logo is an oval, gold, with a white centre, with a red start in the middle of that. The oval has leaves around it.

Lapels? On a hat? I only have the hat.

I am finding hard to describe as I haven't seen it for about a month, due to it being left at a mate's house. However, I think there is a red piping-ness round the top of the hat.

EDIT: Not a very good pic, i know but it's like this, but without the gold string-ness.
