Description: Sleeve and shoulder insignia for "captain third rank." As these were generally made by tailors instead of a factory, there is no manufacture date on the jacket itself but the button backs are mostly 1986 dated. There are a couple small holes on the left chest, where badges were once worn. About a 42" chest, 28.5" from the collar base to the hem, and a 26.5" sleeve. Historically, the Soviet Navy was the most conservative branch of the USSR's armed forces. As such, they tended to retain older styles, like the double-breasted uniform jacket, far longer than their land- or air-based counterparts. In my opinion it's a much nicer style, reminiscent of the short-lived designs of the 1950s. -------- I am a longtime collector of Cold War military equipment. However, as the need to pay for grad school looms on the horizon, I am now selling off a good portion of my collection. Follow me to see my latest listings, and grab some fascinating history (and other stuff) at great prices! I am a collector more than a salesman, and so I'm quite happy to do whatever I can to ensure that you get what you're looking for. I'm always happy to combine shipping! Just ask and I'll get the cost figured out! International buyers please note that you are responsible for determining whether this item is allowed to import; I will not refund orders because they were confiscated by customs. Canadian buyers please note that international shipping is cheaper for you. Feel free to ask and I'll determine the cost to ship to you.
