M1945 Air Marshal
This was being sold awhile back and may resurface.
Its an M1945 "Air Marshal" for Skripkko. However, if you are eagle-eyed you note that it does not have the light blue collar and cuffs; while this WAS done on one occassion (Air Marshal Falalayev; see P.305 of V2 of Uniforms of the Russian Air Fleet)), there is no evidence that Skripkko also lacked this feature. In fact, he is pictured in Sinclair/Drabik (P.226) wearing the Air Marshals M1945 with the light blue collar and cuffs. So, watch out. The tunic was being offered with some original photos of Skripkko. DougD |

Strange, all of them seen by me was with blue underlay in embroidery. Is it possible to be just with blue piping?

blue collar / cuffs
Its possible, but i would say highly unlikley; as i stated in the first post, there is a pic of Air Marshal Falalayev in a 'regular' M1945 uniform without the light blue collar and cuffs, but in that case he was promoted after the uniform was in use and they simply added new boards to his former Colonel-Generals uniform.
Skripkko and the other Air Marshals should all have the light blue collar and cuffs; i have sold three of these and used to own Voroshekinin's (here are his collar and cuffs) and they have all had the proper collar and cuffs. I turned down the above uniform. Doug |

Colored cuffs on marshals uniforms existed for very short period of time and were abolished in September of 1945.
