No, not a fantasy. I have this badge, too, but with a different screwplate. Some sort of Aeroflot academy or school, I suppose.

Could I get a hand with translating the names on these badges please? One of then isn't too focused but the letters should be visible. Thanks
Would the first badge be one of a Tank Academy? I believe the second badge is : Popov School of Naval Radio-Electronics (radar and sonar). Am I correct?

Danny,
You probably already received a response via PM from other forum member. Yes, you are right. The shield on the first one reads "Akademia BTV". BTV must be an acronym for BroneTankovihVoisk (Armored Tank Forces). On the second badge, I can see an inscription "imeni Popova". Simon |

Danny,
I have my doubts about these. Could you post some scans of the reverse. Alexei Quote:

Out of my element here
Hello all, I'm new to this board. I'm a 'long time' collector of the East German Border Guard. I recently added a General's uniform to my collection. It has a tailored hole in the tunic for a Soviet General Staff Academy Badge. I'm out of my element in Soviet badges, but from doing my research here it appears fakes abound. I'm searching for a Voroshilov General Staff Academy badge from the 1960s or 1970s. I would welcome any and all advice on not making a mistake. Thank you.

Jeff,
General Staff Academy badges had a gold frame around the enamel. Originals are not very common, but fakes, as you rightly pointed out, tend to be available ;) Marc |

The best way would be to buy from a reputable dealer, many frequent the forum here. A post in the looking for section in the for sale part of the forum might bring results. Maybe watch out for any on our fav auction site but I would recommend that you aquire as many good images as you can and post them here in the forum for the experts scrutiny. Best regards Eddie.
