Unknown Shoulder board

Hello,

any information about this shoulder board? I think it is not a soviet one, because it is bigger in size as the usual soviet one.

Maybe Bulgarian or Romania?

best regards and thanks
Andreas

Re: Unknow Shoulder board

For other design reasons I'd guess Bulgarian since at a minimum a Romanian wouldn't use cyrillic.

It could be Bulgarian but it seriously doesn't ring a bell. Early post-Soviet Ukrainian?

Alfred,

Provide measurements in MM and I will try to help identifying this enigma.

It is very interesting for me...

Regards,
Richie

I am Bulgarian and I highly doubt it, unless it is some exceedingly rare piece, plus we copied the Soviet style boards to the fullest and this dosen't ring a bell.

How about Yugoslav?

The Yugoslav Peoples' Army Ground Forces (Serbo-Croatian: Kopnena Vojska - KoV, Cyrillic script: Копнена Војска - КоВ) was the ground forces branch of the Yugoslav People's Army (JNA) from 1 March 1945 until May 20, 1992 when it became the Ground Forces of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.

Re: Unknow Shoulder board

I have brought this up to our Russian colleagues. One believes it is Tsarist Russian - WWI era - medical officer, the outdoor adviser of the 7th Kovenskogo fortress hospital.

"Замечательный и, что главное, не частый погон. Первая мировая война, военный врач, надворный советник 7-го Ковенского крепостного госпиталя."

It is under discussion as I am writing this...
