Vintage Russian Military Service Uniform Jacket with Officer Rank Epaulets

Description

A genuine and highly collectible Russian (or Soviet-Era) military service uniform jacket, presenting a significant piece of modern military history. This specific garment is crafted from durable, olive green or dark navy wool blend fabric, depending on the branch of service, and is tailored in the classic straight-cut style. The uniform features distinctive shoulder board epaulets which denote a Junior Officer Rank (such as Lieutenant or Senior Lieutenant) or a Senior Enlisted Rank (such as Senior Sergeant or Starshina), indicated by metallic stars/bars on a colored field. The exact branch of service—likely Ground Forces (red piping/backing), Air Force/VDV Airborne (light blue piping/backing), or Navy/Naval Infantry (black or dark blue)—is identifiable by the piping, collar tabs, and shoulder board backing color. The jacket includes a stand-up collar, two chest pockets, two lower slash pockets, and is complete with regulation-stamped buttons (featuring the Soviet star or Russian emblem). This piece is ideal for military collectors, historical reenactment, or as a striking statement garment. Condition: Excellent vintage condition, consistent with age and official service use. Note: Rank insignia and exact colors will be clarified upon photo review.
