Army Uniforms of the Great Patriotic War
(1941 - 1945)

Let me begin by saying that there were many
different kinds of army uniforms made during the Great Patriotic War, and all
are expensive. It is for this reason that have so few items to show you
here, and even they were made in the years following the war. Still, they
are of the proper pattern. We will try to add more to this section as time
goes on. Since we have so few uniforms we have decided to place them both
in a single category rather than have several empty ones. In any
case we will attempt to
have detailed descriptions of each uniform along with a photograph of the
uniform being worn. Not all of the uniforms will have all of these things at
this time, simply because it is a rather lengthy task.
Below are the Red Army uniforms that we have in
the Sword of the Motherland collection. This section is quite small at the
moment, but will grow as more uniforms are constantly being
acquired. We will attempt to have detailed descriptions of each uniform
along with a photograph of the uniform being worn whenever possible. |
