So here "it" is. A Military ID from the 1920s.

I assume it's an ID book but it doesn't say Voenny Bilet on the cover.
The closest I can find that's similar is the extreme upper right booklet cover on page 5 of Echoes. "KH..." & "KPACHOAP...."

What exactly does the cover indicate?

There's only 2.25 pages of filled-out information in this booklet; the other 32.75 pages are blank. :( I'd like to get a basic idea of what this is and then perhaps, especially if there is any interest by others, sending this to someone for a full translation with the intent of transcribing it here.

If this is a standard, 20s era soldiers ID images and a translation might be helpful as a "sticky" here in the paper section. Other, more common eras as well.

Anyway....here's the cover again and the first page. The bottom three lines are, I believe, the bearer's names.

This is the last page. I presume it's where it was printed?

[Kirchgoens]

I believe it lays out the number of pages contained within the book ("36 numbered pages"), the printer's location in Petrograd, and the name of the print shop ("Svetoch").

So here "it" is. A Military ID from the 1920s.

What exactly does the cover indicate?

Eric, the cover says "Workers of the World, Unite!" at the top and at the bottom is written "Red Army Man's Service Booklet" with a "Red Army Man" meaning enlisted, not an officer. A "private" was called a krasnoarmeets "Red Army Man" in the early days of the Red Army, then gradually became "ryadovoi" (private) as the Red Army changed its name to Soviet Army.

The "krasno-" you see in Russian means "red" as in Red Army Man and "Krasnodar" in Echoes.
