Soviet Uniforms and Militaria 1917-1991
#5
..do more damge then good. They are both loaded with errors!! I was sympathetic withthe "red" volume, but when they did such a poor guy in V2, the state security "blue" volume, I became a bit upset. They propogate falsehoods that don't help new collectors. They contribute to the descriptions you see on E-bay for 1960's items as "NKVD" or WWII, etc.

If you are going to do a book, do a better job. The Webster/Nelson book, having errors, is still a much better researched book and has more commonplace errors and fakes.

DON'T use the Hungarian books as a source.
