Soviet Shoulder boards identification

[Theodor]

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

and some more....

and some more. Nr. 28 has bullion stars and cannons.



Thank you very much in advance!

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.
