    Combat or everyday uniform in red army during WWII.


    Recommended Posts

    what kind of uniforms did the soviet army wore during campaign in WWII?

    was there a regulation?

    did soviet officers wore piped trousers or did they used normal all green trousers?

    did officers wore the pilotka or a peaked cap?

     

    Best regards

    Clarify the subject of your interest. The pre-war uniform is one thing - soldiers with caps (earlier) and caps (later). Since the summer of 1941, a protective uniform with green insignia was introduced, but they wore what they had. Since 1943, standing collar and shoulder straps. There are no lamps on the breeches. The commanders wore both caps and caps. At the same time, the pre-war commander's cap with edging was canceled in 1943, they wore a soldier's cap, since it is more convenient than a cap when moving and does not unmask, it can be shoved under the shoulder strap, hands free.
    And the regulations, of course, were.But, for example, wearing an undercoat as an outer garment was not provided for by the regulations, but it became outerwear and even with shoulder straps. They also wore what was more comfortable. The Germans and Italians wore wicker baskets on their feet. Not according to the regulations, funny, but a little warmer.
