1930s Aviator
Two very nice images of a 1930s aviator - the first with a charcoal penciled greeting and a date of 1937r on the reverse.

Re: Cloth Artillery Insignia
Two, or perhaps three(?) more tank killers. Note the Motorized Unit cyphers on the center man's shoulder-boards and the absence of such on the RH man's...

Two Pre-1925 Full Body Images
Great stuff IMO.
Most notable is the star-cockarde on the second man's cap... |

Re: 1930s Aviator
I don't think it's the same guy, but they do look alike, yeah.
I wonder if the first guy's wife knew he borrowed her fur coat for that photo-shot? ;)

Re: Two Pre-1925 Full Body Images
The "rig" is somewhat common for the era. I have the info for the belt and cross strap/whistle holder but am at a loss at this time...

Re: 1930s Aviator
Perhaps they are brothers or some other relation given their physical similarities, but this is purely speculative. Neat photos, Richie!

Cloth Artillery Insignia
Gents,
As mentioned previously, this insignia was offically authorized for personnel assigned to Direct Fire Anti-Armor Artillery Units. It was authorized for wear between July 1st, 1942 and August 4th, 1956. Regards, slava1stclass |
