Sergey

Thanks. Is always glad to help.

Quite right. It is a sign on GAI of the state automobile inspection the city of Leningrad.

I think that this pin is made after 1936.But it made befor 1953 year. Pin is not the official award

I have a question. Is this the natural color of the metal or is patina?

Doc

I congratulate. Good dagger 1957.It is an army subject. For air forces other design was used. Metal has a patina. I will put a metal picture in the evening.

Sight

Shock part of a gun.

It is a cartridge for a gun and a cartridge for Mosin guns

I have a late 50's gun magazine that advertises shootable Slothurn 20mm anti-tank rifles for $295 and ammo at just under a dollar a round. Lot of money in 50's terms but those were the days. Makes me wonder who bought them and where they are now...and how ammo do they have left.

Nice Degtyaryov...always impressive wartime footage showing soldiers hauling them off into battle.

Such deactiv guns often are on sale on a site. Guns.ru.It an interesting subject, but it does not work. It can be used as a museum exhibit.

I wish to show Degtyaryov's Soviet anti-tank gun.Its sizes are impressive.

I do not know it. However I will ask my relatives.I know that it has returned from the East where served on Sakhalin. I know that it served in Kalinin. However I cannot tell precisely, what is it was to or after the East.

I again will tell that this photo is made in 1962 in the city Kalinin. This officer has arrived from Sakhalin for continuation of the service. If to tell shortly it is my uncle.And I do not speak that the uniform has no errors. I say that have found it in this kind. And I know difference of engineering emblems

Greetings,

you are right. However this uniform from a family of the officer of VVS. It has come to me in this kind.

I do not like to do original correction.I think that you well know as was variants of use a uniform . And I think that this consequence of a poor life in the sixties.And it is an example of use of a uniform after 1958. The photo is made in September, 1962.City Kalinin.In this case I am sorry that I have an error in the size in one month.

I think this a picture will not name bad

Yes here was lost about one million Soviet soldiers. And bones still lie on the earth.

Remains of the soldier have been transported in administration of area for burial in a military burial place.It is very a pity that this soldier will be buried as the unknown soldier

This place has been examined. At the soldier it is not found a personal soldier's sign.We have found only a few buttons and a red star from a cap.

These are bones of the Soviet soldier .It is near the rifle lay.

Ask the permission to continue this theme.In these days off I have gone to wood again.On the earth we see it

At you a good collection.

Belaruski,

No so guaranteed anymore, since these are now faked very convincingly.
