About soviet caps

[81REDSTAR]

Can anybody tell me the details of these two caps?Are they the caps for KGB and MVD?

[Chuck D.]

The top one is KGB. I think the bottom one is Army (red). Is it red or maroon? Maroon is MVD. Sometimes the web does strange things to colors. I once posted a pic of a maroon beret three times, and every pic looked red on the web.

I wonder is the top one a KGB officer parade cap?

Can anybody point out?

I would agree with you : officer parade from KGB !

The Blue KGB hat is for the KGB that Guard Lenin and the "Big Men" who wear the poorly fitting grey suits.

Actually, the red one looks like a police cap, is it actually grey or wave green? If its wave green, then the cap badge is wrong. Its got an airforce cap badge.

The blue one KGB officers cap BUT... the cap badge is wrong. Its an airforce cap badge thats on there, you need an army parade cap badge.
