Esteban, did you notice in the first picture that the shoulder boards were ALL black regardless of branch? That would explain the missing anchor from what you showed us before.

You mean the army general black shoulderboards, right?

The shoulder boards would make alot of sense, Esteban.

Perhaps they did just do it for the parade? I could see that being quite probable! Still, very nice uniforms.

I´m pretty sure by now they must be RF naval infantry then... I´ve never seen such rank in the soviet naval infantry though.

In the first picture of post #1, all the black shoulder boards have branch-colored piping. I don't remember any colored piping on the ones you have.

OK, not "new" but pretty close....Kremlin Guard...really "imperial" looking! In and out of my hands very quickly!

Pretty cool looking. Looks like they strapped a bib on leftover general M45 parade tunics. Similar material?

Tretov · 11-23-2009, 06:28 PM

While the new Kremlin Guards tunics are nice, those caps look ridiculous IMHO. Like some gay police parade helmets.... what is wrong with visor caps :(
