Excellent condition parade uniform of a infantry (ground forces) captain who seems to have been lucky enough to be on the safe side of the vast Soviet country in the years of conflict in the 1980s. While serving in Bulgaria for some time, he was likely part of Warszaw pact maneuvers, earning the medal "Military Cooperation". At some stage he also got the order Badge of Honour, with a serial number indicating mid-1980 awarding.

The foreign medals are the 1978 and 1974 Bulgarian Peoples Republic awards for 100th anniversary of Liberation from Ottoman empire and "30 years of BPA".

The awards indicate a career span of about 25 years in the late 1960s until the end of the USSR. The graduation badge is a standard technical school graduation badge on university level, followed by a Red Guards badge and Master level classification badge.

The awards are mounted on two suspensions (where the lower one seem to be converted from a larger hanger) and the foreign awards are single mounted.

The size of the uniform is about 54 (44).

Awards: Order of badge of Honour, Medal for veteran of Labor, Medal for Combat cooperation, Medals for 60th and 70th anniversaries of the Soviet armed forces and the medals for 20, 15 and 10 years of Irreproachable service, Bulgarian awards as mentioned earler, Red Guards badge, University graduation badge and classification badge for Master level in combined arms.
