Hey everyone,
I recently bought a Soviet uniform. I normally collect East-German (DDR) uniforms, so I know nearly nothing about Soviet uniforms. I hope someone here can help me with some questions I have.
Most important, is it a real Soviet uniform? What time period is it from? (I know it’s not WWII, but nothing more) Are the shoulder boards and collar tabs correct for this uniform? (they still have to be attached to the uniform, and if they are incorrect I won’ t put them on) On which occasions would it be worn?( It was sold to me as a daily service uniform) Can it only be worn with the hat seen in the picture, or also with a helmet?
As you can see, I’ve put a drawing from uniform regulations next to my picture. I guess(but am not sure) this is the uniform I have. Reasons why I doubt: I don’t know what kind of material the uniform should be made of (my uniform is made from a rather rough material).
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Yuri
