Yep, in my post I specifically referred to it as an ushanka
Just an aside, showing a cap made of astrakhan whose wearer need not have been a colonel or higher!
Maybe if someone could thumb through the 1988 edition of the Soviet military uniform regulations -- might that indicate a colonel's prerogative to wear a papakha? |
