the medals..
not really reversed....the photo is ok.
i also collected original photos of generals from 1940-1945 when i collected uniforms. I would sometimes find photos of generals wearing the medals with the ribbons reversed like this. i was not sure why, until i was talking with russians in moscow. their opinion, which i agree with, was that the reverse ribboning was the style of the europeans ( and, the germans whom they could not admit they admired) wore. so, I decided to have one of my generals VPs medaled like this. |

White M1954 General
Here is the white version of the M1954 generals uniform. Notice it has blue trousers; deep blue like M1943, not parade Tsars blue.
I have not seen another of these in a long time; wish they kept using them. DD |
