      A military judge major's tunic.

      The colour of the collar patches is just like the ordnance ones', but since the tunic has the nametag on the inner pocket, it is no doubt a military judge.

      And I'd welcome any info on the pieces above, as well as I would like to see your ones, too.

    3. Prison Guard Major - Female

      upload00.jpg

      There is a service tunic with skirt (and grey shirt with dark blue tie), a parade tunic, and a wintercoat in the set.

      All pieces are in very nice condition, the buttons and shoulderboards are simply flawless, as if these clothes hadn't been put on more than a few times.

      First, the service tunic and a couple of details:

      You can see the dark blue piping on the top of the collar and the same coloured lining on the shoulderboard. The gilt button on the latter has the 1957-type crest. On the collar, you can see the branch sign of the prison/correction authorities (The sign is identical to the one on the left side of the collar; a shield with a §-sign and two rifles crossed behind the shield). On the right bust there are two loopholes for (probably a qualification) badge.

      The parade tunic:

      The tunic differs from the first in both fabric and pattern, but also has the nice buttons, boards and signs. It has the loopholes for the badge, as well.

      The third one is the wintercoat:

      It has the same accessories as the tunics, but doesn't have the dark blue piping around the collar. It was made from a very heavy, thick fabric. Once it had a removable padding,but it did not came with the piece to me.

      And some details:

    4. Not an interesting article... but here's the translation:

      (I hope my english was not too poor...)

      "Ernő Nagy, awardee of 'Order for the Socialist Homeland', who had been a member of the (Hungarian Socialist Workers') Party since 1928, died at the age of 74. The cremation and the Memorial event afterwards will take place in the Pesterzs?bet Cemetery on the 20th of September at 3pm. - XX. District Committee of the Hungarian Socialist Workers' Party"

    5. There are 3 major movies I know about, they're titled '?szak fel?!', 'Kelet fel?!' ?s 'D?l fel?!'. (Northward!, Eastward! and Southward! in english)

      They were made during the "glorious" recapturing of Upper-Hungary, Transylvania and the Southern parts, for propaganda purpose. Hungarian vehicles and uniforms can be observed very well while watching these documentaries.

      They are usually available on DVDs at nationalist book- and DVD-shops and other sellers.

    6. All these things were hidden during the socialist times and all old "Ludovika academy" officers had to keep a very low profile about their past.

      Yeah, you don't have to tell me - I live in Hungary.

      My grandfather's brother was a Ludovika student, too, though he never graduated. (Family gossips say he was quite a man bound by his own rules. He had done something the academy staff hadn't liked and he had been sent away.) He also ended up and died in G?teborg in 1976 or so. Before and during the first years of the war he was a levente-leader/instructor. The guys there (nor his brother) didn't like him too much because of his strict rules and behavior... They called him "levente-general".

      Unfortunately there's nothing left from him. It's good for you to have a lot of your ascendant's belongings in excellent shape.

    7. Long service badges for personnel in justice/jurisdiction (judges, advocats, ministerial staff, warders)

      (There is a topic for awards like these, but I thought they wouldn't have fitted there.)

      There were badges for 10, 20 and 30 years of service in justice. They were being awarded during the socialist era, the decision concerning long service awards in general was abrogated in 1988. (Though there are some companies still using long service awards. Not national, but their own ones, of course.)
