    Cuban shoulder boards

    Just got myself two pairs of Cuban shoulder boards...

    One is presumably artillery and the other armoured.

    I have no idea what sort of uniform these come from - anyone have any info?

    Have a look at the pics below, couple of things of note here:

    1) The boards are two different sizes, why?
    2) They are of similar construction to a Soviet board, a KGB PV board for a shirt is shown for comparison in pic 2
    3) Looking at the backs (pic 3) I am guessing normally they go over an epallete (sp?) on a shirt, however the tank ones have been (crudely) modified to a similar type of attachment as the KGB PV shirt board

    Sorry about the size of the photos!

    Kozlov,
    I'll send you some pics this week that might clear this up a bit. The two Cuban shirts I have that were captured on Grenada have places where shoulder boards would be attatched. I will also send you a pick of my Cuban shoulder boards that were captured there as well. They are noticably shorter than the Soviet ones. By the way, awesome shoulder boards. I'm drooling!!!
