Translation of 1958 regulations
A few Years ago I have translated the 1985 uniform regulations to polish and used to sell it (pdf on CD or by e-mail) here. It wasn't very succesfull, but at least I got the amout of money that equalled what I paid for the book.
From legal point of view - it was allright. But to the point - if I translate it to english, would there be any interest in it? I mean - if it would be relatively cheap? Right now it's theoretical - the translation would take me some time (about a month), but I would gladly hear Your opinions on the idea as such and a possible price. |

red book
Are you talking about the small, hardbound, reddish orange regulations book that is sold at shows, etc? I know I have a copy in the attic...anyway, Shawn Caza did a good job translating it and put out a bound self published version that use to be for sale, but I think is rare now. I'll ask if he has any more.

I am talking about m58 regulations. My copy has a grayish-brown cover.
The red book was m88 regulations, and I thing that's the one You had in mind. The translation of it (parts) was available on-line few years ago (at www.sovietarmy.com - it's no longer there), and the translation was done by Shawn Caza. |

You are talking about regulations published in 1958, not m58 regulations.

I mean the ones that were published in 1958 and were an "appendix" to the order of the Minister of Defence of the Soviet Union of 29 of march 1958. So why not call them m58? OK, regulations cannot be "a model" but this introduced uniforms that are reffered to as m58 (and were used since 1958) and that's what I had in mind.
The book I have does not have such an ornate cover. Is it a sort of a removable upper cover? |

Al-muell,
It's fine to call them the M58 or M1958 regulations, I think we knew what you meant and you do not need to explain yourself. Publishing a translated version would be a great idea; keep us updated. DougD Moderator |
