Soviet Uniforms in Museums - DougD - 11-26-2009

This is a new thread dedicated to photos of Soviet ( any era) uniforms in museums....post away!

I'll start. This is a great Artillery officers tunic from the Central Museum of Artillery and Engineering Troops, St.Petersburg.

Design samples of early Red Army uniforms circa 1935-1941 in the Central Armed Forces Museum. Sorry for the flash!

Central Armed Forces Museum had a nice display on armoured units of the Russian Civil War.

The State History Museum did a great display on the 1945 Victory Parade back in 2005 (I think thats when it was). Here is a great shot of a Technical ( i.e. Engineering and Signals) M1943 parade tunic for a Lt.General...not withstanding what's said by moderators on other forums, magenta with gold embroidery is for Engineering Generals; silver embroidery with red insignia is just administration, not "Technical Engineering".

From the same display, Colonel General M1945 tunic.

They are all incredible photos and I would love to see as long a list of pictures of actual uniforms for reference (and admiration) as possible since I am still learning about them and I'm a "visual learner.":D

Of course you know my favorite one is in post #2 (one guess as to which ;)) though for eye-pleasing the two generals have it hands down. In fact, I don't think I have ever seen the two lower badges on the Lt. General's uniform before. Perhaps they are engineering related.

A few uniform shots from various Moscow museums, summer 2006.

As my interests lie mainly with awards, the bias may show :p

And I may, if there is interest, add some Mongolian uniforms from Ulanbaatar in a similar thread, over there. If there's interest?
