Re: Cap Badges
As far as I am concerned, it is for use by personnel of the Ministry of Communications - pattern of 1948.

Re: Cap Badges
I assume those are the judicial badges since they're sporting a sword & shield?
PS. see page 412 in Avers8 for those.

Re: Cap Badges
Trans-literal for this is PROKURATURA - So I would think it means PROSECUTOR/JUDICIAL...

Re: Cap Badges
Here is an example of a cap adorning this cockarde. Ministry of Communications (responsible for radio, telegraph & telephone transmissions, communications satellites, and postal service) "employee" - made in 1953.

Please elaborate. I have known about these AVERS references, but do not own any. Do you think it is required reading? Does this reference show cockardes along with badges? |

If I remember correctly, there are a few cockades, but they are mostly for police/militia. I could be mistaken since those are the types of things I tend to look at most.:D Phillip P.S. Thanks for the photo ID of the cockade - the original reason this thread got cranked up again.:thumbsup

Re: Cap Badges
Could someone date this one for me? It was sold to me as wartime, somehow I doubt it but it wasn't expensive so I bought it as a reference piece. It seems to be 32mm (but this seems like an odd size from what I've read on here, I measures from point to point). Any assistance you may be able to provide would be most appreciated. This is my first hat badge.
