USSR WWII Uniforms

Thank you all for the hint about WWI Russian uniforms. The very large batch of Osprey books at Borders netted me their Men-at-Arms book Russian Army 1914-18 by Nk Cornish. It has just about everything that I need and looks to be a good read tonight. To add to the pot, it was free! My Borders reward card monthly discount was more than enough to cover it.

I am also looking for something similar for WWII USSR uniforms. I need infantry and aircrew information, the latter for a glider pilot.

Does anybody know if Russian civilians and/or partisans would be picking stuff up in a horse-drawn wagon? The glider, truck and most of the cargo are done, just need to do the wagon, horse, diorama base and figures.

TIA all.

Tom

Look for a book by Andrew Mollo and Malcom McGregor:

"Army Uniforms of WWII" (I believe that is the title.)

It is a *wonderful* large hardback, chock full of great color plates, and geed descriptive text. It covers all combatants from all theaters; even some of the more esoteric stuff.

Thanks, Greg. Good tip. I'll see what I can find.

I have a copy of the Osprey Red Army of the Great Patriotic War on order. If it's anywhere near as good as their WWI books it should to the job.

Thanks,

Tom
