Italian @1940?
May we see a close up of the cap badge and the collar badges?
Thanks,

Maybe Turkish? Those pouches... and what about that super long bayonet, what is it? Turks had such /M89, 90, 03/ in WWI, but what about later?

Hi on collar patches there are plain numbers 27 and cap badge is to smal to see anything.My thoughts Greek,Romanian or any of Baltic states, maybe Switzerland or France.What do you think abouth these countries.Anyway thanks to all of you for your input.Originally posted by McCulloh

The rest of his uniform looks pre-WWII Greek as well! About the mid-1930's I think. YA SOU!

Hi there-
The uniform does indeed look Greek, but I am not convinceed this is a Greek soldier. A close up of the collar tabs and cap cockade should clear things up. If, as it seems, there is a crown, then it excudes the years 1923-1935 when Greece was a republic. All the best

I just looked in Funkens' WW2 book-definetly Greek, @1940.Comment

Thjs is a tough one . . . my old uniform text which is all drawings, no photos, shows that this could be Serb or Albanian as well as Greek. The leggings seem a little off for Greek, in my old text, but I am in no way a qualified expert, just a good guesser. A color photo would be extremely helpful.Comment

Thanks for more info on that photo but now I am 100 % that soldier is Greek befor WW II periode.For Albanian to good dresssed and equiped and Serbian definetly not because they had totaly different uniforms in cut.Thanks again.
