Hi guys
Is this a transition or temporary patch used by VDV ? Regards Cleber

According to Soviet Arm Badges: 1920-91, this is the original style airborne sleeve shield in use from 1967 -1968. The patch depicted appears a little different from that in the book. I've seen a number of these available on ebay during the past few months. Perhaps they are a remake?

Yes I take this scan from a E-Bay seller, but the same seller have a lot of other strange patches, like red and black airborne troops....very strange.... Do you know were can I find one of this book "Soviet Arm Badges: 1920-91" Regards from Brazil Cleber

If these are showing up en masse, I'd probably steer clear of them. Yes, they were produced from photograph evidence, but are rare compared to the typical patch and you should ask yourself why are they all showing up suddenly, especially if the seller has black & red ones?

I have yet to see a real one for sale anywhere. The ones for sale on ebay have all been fake. Considering it was only used for a short period of time, I imagine this is one of the "holy grails" for collecting Soviet patches.
