re: Flags of the OGPU
Does the word "Pogranokhrana" stands for border guards?

In this context I would translate it as "Border Security." Regards, slava1stclass |

OGPU Border Troops School Flag: Then and Now!
Slava used a great pic to start a thread on OGPU flags....here is the same standard he showed, but in the Border Troops Museum in Moscow. Great to see a "Then and Now" of the same unit flag!

Re: Flags of the OGPU
Two more OGPU Border Troops unit flags from the same museum...I love how one flag has had 'Death to the German Occupier" added to it!
Superb unit flags. DougD |

Air OGPU
One of the few OGPU flags to go through my hands (a few years ago), this is a great award flag to an air unit of the OGPU.

Re: Flags of the OGPU
Another superb image; 1st Belorussian Regt. of the OGPU...just a great shot of the unit flag before the war.

Re: Flags of the OGPU
Great stuff. I really need to get back to Moscow and into some of the museums that did not exist when I was there! Are there any "virtual" or online versions of ones anyone knows of?
