    My Soviet Dembel


    Recommended Posts

    This Soviet "Dembel" (a uniform embellished when serviceman/woman is demobilized. This came off the back of a Soviet Sgt in the Armored Corps.

    Nice, original dembel uniform with all the "stuff". The suspension medals however were added and were never actually worn by the individual in question. They would have been issued only to war veterans. Your dembel was a one-term soldier probably serving in the 80s and despite the other frill, would NEVER have worn those medals.

    Yeah, He probably kept his own awards and put the 20th & 30th GPW for looks.

    No, the badges are probably all his. If by awards, you mean medals, he 99% probably didn't have any since he probably wasn't in Afghanistan or any conflict. Whoever sold the uniform added them to spice it up or make it more visually appealling.
