It seems to be shortly post-war because of the victory over germany medal and ribbon bar. The soldier on the left also has same gymnastorka model as the one on the picture in post 1 of that thread.
I was wondering why the man on the right doesn't have shoulder board and has pants with different shape that the soldier on the left. He also has a ribbon bar for medal. Can he be a partisan? (If I remember correctly, Partisan were wearing uniform but with no rank insigna).
The bloke on the right is wearing a M1943 service tunic and I would say that the medals are "Medal for Combat Service" and "Victory Over Germany". As for him being a partisan, it is not impossible but I would have thought that most partisans would have worn civillian clothing with medals attached. Could be wrong though.
