Hi all, I've a request re. help in identifying what uniform my partner's grandfather is wearing in these photos. I've had a look online but can't be entirely sure. We know he was a Polish Jew who escaped the Holocaust but when he fled to the USSR was put in a camp. We believe he was then recruited into the Red Army, but we know very little about it, what sort of unit he'd have been in and so on. I was hoping these images might provide a clue, if anyone can help I would be very grateful, many thanks
Welcome Luke, Definitely Polish army. The collars do tell a story if you can work out the colours- Barwy broni i służb Wojska Polskiego II RP – Wikipedia, wolna encyklopedia from here- Polish military uniforms - collar markings Scott
