MVD School/Academy Badges.
I start this thread (which I expect to be very long) for reference images and some background when possible on the badges themselves. If there is no objection, I would also like to include some of the very early post-1991 badges that simply changed the Soviet seal with the RF eagle and for the most part that was it.
If anyone thinks that any badge in this thread might be or certainly is a fake/fantasy, please let me know. First, I'll post some MVD Military-Political universities. According to my understanding of Rogov's History of Awards and Insignia of Russian MVD, 1802 - 2002 The MVD Высшего Политического Училища VPU was not the same as the military political school (which had the same initials) after the late 1960s-1971. During the time before the first graduations from these MVD "Higher Political Schools" in 1971, each school developed its own commemorative graduation badge that was also worn by the faculty and staff of each school. I can't tell from Rogov's book which of these badges goes with which school, so any help would be appreciated. None of the ones I have have any mint marks and only the first one has a LMD screw plate so I'm guessing they were mostly special commissions. I'm also not 100% sure about the third one - it looks too new. The 2nd I bought in Moscow (not at a market). Phillip
