Doc,
Unfortunately, in my awe, it seems that I have completely overlooked an important attribute of your beautiful, and IMO; authentic shoulder-boards.
Regretfully, embarrassingly, and of course apologetically, I need to "flip flop" in a small degree...
I have read the current debate at hand on the Soviet Awards Page Forum:
Medical Uniforms and Insignia - Page 14 - The Soviet Military Awards Page Forum
I must agree with the Russian member who has pointed out that shoulder-boards, in this case for medical personnel, should indeed be the four centimeter "narrow" type...
Regards,
Richie

Sure Richie, but as seen on the period pictures they are exists... Originally the straps for any of technical, supply or other services like comunication etc of the border troops

I assume you imply that Medical personnel used the wider type boards in some instances?
If so, nobody can rule that out... As of course, it is certainly possible...
However, the Russian member who shared his opinion, and data, certainly presented a fairly strong case against the legitimacy of this, and I assume once again, this example in particular...

Hello Guys,
My Russian friend, Vilen, was a Lt. in the Soviet Parachute Regiment. His Father was a Colonel of the Medical Service and would like a uniform to put together with his Father's awards. Would a M55 uniform still be in use in 1960's? If it was I'm going to give him one of my Medical service Colonel's uniforms.

Service uniform of a Navy Medical Service polkovnik (Colonel) . It's the first Naval Medical service in my collection.

It's Navy medical service polkovnik (colonel) and the visor cap shouldn't have oak leaves.
Thanks for the correct title!!!
Doc
