Euronymous Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Hello I have a question about albanian M75 officer jackets. Some officers have a closed collar jacket and other have an opened collar jacket. Why ? Did they have the choice ? Here is a photo with 2 officers wearing a closed collar jacket.

Kallarati Heroik Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 Open jacket is with epauletes. Close jacket without them. We all know, since 1970 albania removed grades from army (epauletes). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euronymous Posted December 28, 2022 Author Share Posted December 28, 2022 (edited) You didn't answer to my question ... I know ranks were abolished in M66 uniforms and it is the same for M75. Opened collar jackets have been reintroduced in 1975, it is the reason you can see some officers wearing these ones. But, some officers continued to wear closed collar jacket. And I am just wondering why some officers continued to wear the closed collar jacket while others wore an opened collar one.

Ervin Bushati Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Closed collar jacket is for field uniform and the opened collar jacket is for ceremonial or (furlough) uniform i don't know exactly the right word in English, in Albanian military terminology was: "Uniformë liridalje" when officer go out in the city.

Zaim Qyteza Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 (edited) Hi Euronymous, The M.66 uniform had only one type of jacket, the one with a closed collar. The M.66 jacket was created under the Chinese influence of that period. The M.75 uniform provided that along with it, jackets with an open collar were reintroduced. In this model, the jacket with a closed collar was for the training uniform. The jacket with an open collar was for the office uniform. The officers of your picture, wear M.66 Uniform, around 1970. This is understood by the hat they wear, which has a shelter covered with stuff. This type of hat was introduced on 1969. What is the difference between a M.66 with closed collar jacket and an M.75 closed collar jacket? The M.66 has buttons on the edge of the shoulder straps. In this picture, you can see three officers in M.75 uniform (w/o buttons on the shoulder straps).
