Re: New Russian Uniforms!
It's kind of refreshing and yet disgusting to see this...head...gear, spoil such a promising uniform. Personally I think the Soviet union in the 80s had the best uniforms of modern times(within the last 30 years), now a days Russian uniforms seem to be changing to a strange breed between the 80s Soviet uniforms crossed with some sort of odd Tsarist uniforms... :(
I mean, looking at this kepi, or shako, or whatever it is; weren't the bin lid caps big enough?! |

Hey Eric,
No Mrs.D to complain, but girlfriend is never thrilled when one of the boys makes it downstairs for a photo shoot...she does consider it her living room. DougD |

They do look quite a bit more impressive when they have live bodies moving around in them. And I remember the guards carried rifles, but not the usual Kalashnikov - some strange thin things. Anyway, to get to the point (finally) I like 'em. They have my favorite Soviet/RF colors. And Patrick, I had to laugh at the "gay police parade helmets" because I flashed to Monty Python, but they aren't that bad (then again, I haven't seen "gay pride" parades in Sweden :chuckle). Phillip
