I assumed that by "russian type" wayne meant the tsarist era ones that the soviet late re-adopted with some small modification. It could of course also be the first ones adopted suring the russian civil war (geometrical pips).

• here* the soviet-era ones had the colour of the arm of service used for the vertical line but since alyeska use differently coloured uniforms for its various branches, there would be no need for it. --Marc Pasquin 19:22, 27 Jul 2005 (PDT)
