Finally, I have been wondering for a very long time about MIA and State Security uniforms for Mongolia. I know of no good resources on the structure, much less the uniforms of the Mongolian security services - just the awards.

That was a hint in case anyone knows of a good place to find out about the structure and history of it (even what it was called). I know it was the first non-Soviet Union Cheka-based security service set up by the Soviets as early as 1922 (I think).

Is the picture of Noojoo reversed? I ask this due to how he wears his medals.

[Urnuh]

I think so. The photo got reversed.

How come he´s so decorated, but is just a sergeant?

Not at all an especially high or unusual set of awards. Especially with most of his high-level stuff being likely long-service awards.
