Yea, if someone knows something about beltbucket.
Re: Unknown soldier-unknown army photo
My vote: Russian army private (late uniform)
Belt with two-head eagle? look at collar, boots.

Re: Unknown soldier-unknown army photo
It certainly could; the eagle is exactly like the WH one. It could of course be an eagle for some of the more obscure nazi organizations, but I'd say it most probably is a WH WW2 buckle.Obergrenadier wrote:I also belive it's Austrian (Croatia wos part of Dual monarchy, so I hardly suspect it is russian)
