General's cap

Al-muell,

Yes, I am sure this kind of general's cap never existed. Generals of the air force had the same cap as their fellows. At least the 1957, the 1975 and the 1987 regulations don't mention a cap for air force generals.

Thanks though again for the pics! Regards, Sandor

There may be a mistake made by the illustrator, however, I have found out that at least some pictures were made on a base of original photographs, and I thig it would apply to all of them, but as I said - the "artist" could have made some mistakes.

As for the photograph - I have made a mistake, sorry - it's 1974, at least that what's printed on the back of the picture, and since it's an official foto, it is ulikely that the date is wrong.

OK. So it was like on the picture, but without the wings, or were they totaly different?
You are welcome.
But my question again: Were those Hungarian army "gimnastiorkas" soviet made, or is it just the autthor's fantasy?

Gimnastiorka

Al-muell: the caps of the air force generals used to be just like the caps of the "ordinary" generals, a general's cocarde and nothing else on them. Regarding the gimnastiorka, as far as I know they were Hungarian made. It is though true that they were up to 99% like the Soviet ones. Regards, Sandor
