    Soviet Shoulder boards identification

    Hi guys, please help me with the identification of some shoulder boards. Most are Soviet - would like to know, what branch of the army and if WW2 or later.

    /also, some may be non-Soviet??/

    So, here they are. What are they? WW2 or later? Nr. 9 has stars and wing made of bullion

        They are all the correct shape for WW2 ie 5 sided, except 24. I can't remember when the shape changed but it wasn't 1945, it was sometime after that - 1954. So these are "in the M1943 style" as opposed to definitely WW2.

        Of the EM/NCO boards you have (the full colour ones as opposed to green in the middle with coloured edges), these will be postwar as I believe the issue of everyday insignia to enlisted men was suspended for the duration of the war.

        1) Naval?
        2) Artillery
        3) Airforce
        4) Signals
        5) Infantry (if thats the same colour as 7)
        6) Airforce
        7) Infantry
        8) "technical troops", no idea which as its missing its device
        9) Airforce
        10 There is no 10
        11) See 8
        12) Artillery
        13) Airforce
        14) ??
        15) Transport
        16) Infantry - postwar definitely
        17) See 8
        18 Infantry
        19) Infantry
        20) Infantry
        21) See 8
        22) Artillery - don't know what this is from?
        23) Admin troops
        24) Admin troops
        25)??
        26) Infantry
        27) Tanks
        28) Artillery
        29) See 8
        30) Signals
        31) Artillery
        32) Artillery/tanks probably
        33) See 8
        34) See 32

            Comrades,
            In support of Comrade Kozlov, standing shoulder to shoulder in this task, this Command can add..

            14 is Artillery or Armoured Junior Officers Everyday Board, the devices would be in Silver.

            23 is Medical Veterinary and Legal Services, they used Thin Silver Boards with Gold Stars, the Badge of service (which are missing) would be in Gold for Medical and Legal, Silver for the Veterinary service.

            24 is to the post Great Patriotic War regulations of the 1950's ,unable to locate date (due to lack of Clearance at Moscow Centre), but the shape is correct for the period before this grade of Officer was issued the Jacket with the open collar for Parade or walking out.

            25 is an "Intendant" Officer of the Commissariat , worn with Gold Stars, branch of service devices in Brass and Enamel.

            The Moths that commited this Crime of "Wrecking of the People's property" will be hunted down and answer for their Crimes.
            No stone will be left unturned!

              Item 22

              Item 22 is the remains of the sleeve insignia for Anti-Tank artillery. It should be a diamond shaped patch with red piping.
