I apologize my cousine have not allowed to show other photos .

Thanks. Very interesting theme. For the first time I read the text

Remarkable sign. I congratulate

Good tunic. I congratulate. However tanks cost not correctly .Stars and emblems very much beside.

These are photos relatives of the soldier from the Tver area have presented me. Photos are made in Petersburg in the beginning of the twentieth century

I can not argue with you. I not the big expert on imperial army. Quite probably it is Keksholmsky. However the scroll real historical. I shall try to show a photo from a museum with very similar cap.

I shall try to find at the cousine and to show photos make the uncle during patroling. On a photo the American fighters make flight of the Soviet bombers

Forgive here it is a photo

This photo is made in the beginning of the sixtieth years when Khruschev has started to reduce Soviet aircraft .The uncle spoke as in air station in г Kalinin (naw-Twer) new planes pressed the tank on a runway. Khruschev considered, that the rocket era begins . And as aircraft-favourite child Stalin. And Khruschev did not love Stalin and all that is connected with it

Sergey,

I would love to hear more about your family's service, too!!

Wow! Cannot say I have ever come across that before! I suppose its not te most comfortable thin to wear....and judging from the holes, mebbe not the most effective either! Still.... ifit savedyou a bullet hole or two to the chest that was already a start!

You are mistaken. There are certificates that SN-42 was very good in conditions of city. In field conditions its efficiency decreased .

Range of a shot is of great importance.

I know this going slightly if property is burnt down the owner loses the right to the land ands sombody one tried this on one of the governent buildings near Kermlin luckaly fire crews got there in time and building was saved, but just goes show nothing is sacred

Order of Victory

The Lord ,

probably you living in the states with the issued political-economic system existing many decades cannot understand an event in former republics USSR .On 100 years vary politically-economic system three times. Change of a formation accompanies bloody time of numerous wars and Stalin cleaning. As a result to authority people thinking only about the pocket come .

I do not love communistic ideology. However during Soviet time there was an order. Bad business tried to hide. Now the law of-money Therefore now probably such sale of a banner .I think well that yet do not sell the Kremlin

Gentlemen,

the last flag of the 163rd division is obviously stolen from the museum .

The new "owner" might get difficulties with the embassy, authorities and Interpol .

Just my few cents ...

Best regards

Christian

At Russian military forum where the seller has put this flag for 2000 US D there were many questions. Spoke that the banner is stolen from a museum. However the seller proved legality of the sale. My opinion that such sale and purchase is immoral. Certainly if this flag not a copy. It is very a pity but the world correct money

Hi Sergey,

Many thanks for the help on these and for the translation. And don't worry... your English is actually very good. Just keep working on it... the more you use it the better it gets. But trust me... alot of native speakers don't do as well as you.

That last one you posted sure is a beaut, but if Christian is correct then someone will probably end up being in deep trouble over it.

Thanks!

Dan

Thanks for good words

next

Ucraina-Kiew

This banner recently sold on the Internet

Problems were not only at Russian but also German the soldier

Poor guy, who wore this one. Great relict, Sergey, speaks volumes. Thanks for posting.

Here it is possible to look about the Rzhev fight http://rshew-42.narod.ru/200/diarama.html

Helmets often in such condition come to the house. Then after chemical processing, a finding in water they become such

The Soviet helmet from in a place of fighting actions-near by from Rzhev. The Sovet-German front 1942-1943. The rests of a winter paint are visible .

The flag ( p 24) probably military doctrines of the Ukrainian armed forces and the country where is used English language. This ornament of a meeting of militarians is possible. It not an official flag
