The insgnia and shoulder boards look like they are reproduction and the collar liner is definately not orignial...this is the description. This is an original pre-war, Russian M-1936 combat uniform. It is a small size and while the uniform has some stains and is somewhat faded, it is authentic and very difficult to obtain. Included with the uniform is an original metal water bottle and enlisted leather belt plus boots. The boots have probably been resoled but are original as well. I obtained these from a college in Estonia a few years ago. Any thoughts? __________________ "We can truly say that the whole circuit of the earth is girdled with the graves of our dead... and, in the course of my pilgrimage, I have many times asked myself whether there can be more potent advocates of peace upon earth through the years to come, than this massed multitude of silent witnesses to the desolation of war." King George V, Flanders, 1922
