Now that I think of it, this diagram actually applies accordingly. Note the absence of sleeve chevrons and metallic lace around the collar tabs...

Very cool photos.

I always liked that patch, maybe the next time I see one I'll have to get it! :)

Actually komdivs (like richie shows) with m35 uniforms (notice diamonds on collar tabs). As early as 1938 with the 20 year RKKA medal. Interesting set of badges including excellent medical professional badges. The one has what looks like an excellent rkka soldier badge which i would not have expected with a senior medical officer.

They aren't komdives - they are division doctors

- military medical assistant
- senior military medical assistant
- 3-d rank military doctor
- 2-nd rank military doctor

In case of military veterinary service - the same, but with "veterinary" word before "medical assistant" or "doctor"
