Verdun16 Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Can anyone give me an ideal of what service and branch wore these and what time period they are from. I got these back in 1993 in Hungary from a friend who got them while he was in Russia. Thanks,Bryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks,Bryan Bryan,That would be for a private infantryman 1950's to end of 1960's if memory serves me right.Marc Edited April 2, 2008 by Lapa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verdun16 Posted April 2, 2008 Author Share Posted April 2, 2008 Hi Marc, Thanks for the help. They are a really nice pair of boards, much nicer than what I thought a grunt private would get but guess it could happen,Bryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 That type-- and enlisted ones have always been much harder to find over here than generals and officers-- are meant to flip over: uniform color on top for field dress, claret color on top for dress wear.A very neat system!

SKY MARSHAL Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 It is shoulder-straps of Petty Officer (погоны старшины). The rank the "Petty Officer", stands between ranks the "Senior Sergeant" and the "Second Lieutenant" in Soviet Army. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
