Reproduction model 1943 Junior officers field shoulder boards made to order, I do not hold these in stock as fabric is limited, and there are too many variations and sizes to make this a practical option. The fabric of the board is dark green wool sourced from Russia glued to a rough linen fabric underneath, the piping fabric is sourced here in the UK and Russia, the backing material is any suitable period Soviet fabric available, usually cotton duck scraps and off cuts, just like the originals.
I have piping in these colour's only;-
Raspberry for infantry officers.
Red for armour and artillery officers.
Black for sappers, engineers, chemical officers.
Sky blue for Air Force and Airborne officers.
Royal blue for cavalry officers.
1. You will need to measure the length from your tunic/coat shoulder seam to 1 cm pass the button (as per the illustration).
2. Boards are for officer ranks from Junior Lieutenant up to Colonel.
Construction and measurements are taken from period construction manuals. Shipping will be done when the order is complete, if you are ordering other items, I will hold them all back until your boards are finished, and ship everything in one package.
