Captured, named, Russian winter gear
DISCLAIMER: Please, for the love of all that is holy, NO POLITICS or opinions on the war. Please discuss the piece itself, because certain members just can't keep quiet about their views on the war. It's a jacket and pair of pants. Nothing more, nothing less.
This set of Russian winter gear was picked up by a member of the Ukrainian 92nd Mechanized Brigade in abandoned Russian defensive positions, Kharkiv, July 13th, 2022. The 92nd Brigade was a vital part to last years counteroffensive, and they took many Russian prisoners and trophies during the battle. Kharkiv was liberated more or less during the middle part of May, and more gains were made by September.
There are several more uniforms and trophies on the way via members of the 14th Separate Assault Brigade, 92nd Mechanized Brigade, and 65th Mechanized Brigade, and should be filtering in throughout the months of July and August.
