In 1943, a new uniform was adopted in the Red Army. The new gymnastrock was very much like that was used in the royal army and had a rack collar, fastening two buttons. The main distinguishing feature of the new uniform has become epaulets. Two types of pursuit were envisaged: Field and Casual. Field epaulets were made of protective color fabric. On the chains near the buttons wearing a small gold or silver badge, designating the bodies of troops. The officers wore a fodder with a black leather chipper. The color of the chain in the cap depended on the kind of troops. In winter, the generals and colonels of the Red Army were supposed to wear dads, and the rest of the officers received ordinary ruins.

And now more thorough:

Back in the summer months of 1941, preparation was deployed to ensure the personnel of the Red Army with warm things for the winter. The main warm things, first of all, fur coats and boots were sought for at various warehouses of pre-war storage, gathered as the assistance of the army from the population, were made by an impact pace with the tolerances towards simplification and cheaper. As a result, the existing army was completely satisfied with warm things. What led to some diversity in color and the main form in the winter of 1941/1942.

By the way, the German industry could not provide his army in winter outfit, and it is not necessary to say that Blitzkrieg, the seizure of Moscow was expected before the winter, it was clear that Bluzkrieg was not smelled. Yes, and the capture of Moscow did not mean the end of the war, they walked in the tropics, so somewhere German trips were launched, so on time in winter fighting, the losses of the Wehrmacht from frostbite exceeded the number of combat losses.

The composition of the rear parts and institutions, motor vehicles of combat connections, as well as the chauffs of all kinds of troops, instead of overcoats, began to produce a double-breasted cotton jacket. A large stress with the provision of broad property was due to a decline in the production of light industry products, some enterprises of which has not yet established production in evacuation, and the remaining on the ground have experienced difficulties with raw materials, energy and workforce. For lovers to argue whose shape or whose tanks and airplanes are the best and so on, the answer is simple.

The transformation of a very large number of defense enterprises for the Urals, and their launch on the technological cycle in such a short time. It has no analogues in history, simply in such volumes and for such distances, no one and never industry has moved, and it will hardly perk in the future, the largest industrial migration. So only for this feat, it is necessary to build a huge, premium monument. By the way, the German industry was completely translated into military rails only in 1943, and before that only 25% went to military needs from general indicators.

For the same reason, the project prepared for May 1942 was postponed on the introduction of new signs of difference, which assumed October 1, 1942 to provide the whole red army with the shoulders.

The Soviet system of signs of differences is unique.

This happened after the unconditional surrender of fascist Germany in the 45th year. Soon about the fact that the working people asked for such honor

Start the story of the introduction of signs of differences in the Soviet Army will have to have some common issues. To all, it will be useful to be a small excursion to the history of the Russian state, so as not to formulate empty references in the past. The pursuit themselves represent a kind of product that is on the shoulders in order to indicate the position or title, as well as the kind of troops and official affiliation. This is done in several ways to fasten the skies, asterisks, making lumen, chevrons.

The epoch, long in a couple of decades, which begins after coming to power the Bolsheviks, marked themselves with numerous changes in the life of the once former empire. The reorganization of almost all structures of peaceful and military activity turned out to be quite long and complete disputes with the process.

It is difficult to imagine that the ranks initially

The entire period of the existence of the USSR can be divided into several stages on various epochal events. As a rule, changes in the political life of the state lead to a number of cardinal changes, including in the army. The pre-war period, which is limited to 1935-1940, went down in history as the birth of the Soviet Union, and the attention should be paid not only to the state of the material part of the armed forces, but also on the organization of the hierarchy.

Even during the Second World War, the troops of the marines instilled horror in German soldiers. Since then, the last name was secured by the second name Black death or black devils, indicating an inevitable violence over those who will encroacitate the integrity of the state. Perhaps this nickname is somehow due to the fact that the infantryman wore black bustle. One thing is just known if the enemy is afraid, then this is the lion's share of victory, and, as you know, the symbol of the marines is considered the motto

Considering all the stages of the creation of the Armed Forces of Russia, it is necessary to deeply immerse themselves in history, and at least at the time of the principalities are not talking about the Russian Empire and even more so about the regular army, the birth of such a concept, as defense capability begins with this era. In the XIII century, Russia was represented by separate principles. Their military squads, though they were armed with swords, axes, spears, sabers and onions, but could not serve as a reliable protection against extraneous encroachments. Unified Army

Based on the above-mentioned norms in secret mode, the detailed provision on the supply of the service of the army leading the hostilities was carried out. On June 30, 1941, hastily refined due to the unexpected attack of Germany in the USSR, this information was declared a circularity of the main internant for the information of the Red Army.

In the first days. The Bolsheviks that followed by the Great October Socialist Revolution began to form armed groups from the proletaries of physical labor, the sailors of the royal fleet and deserters of the Imperial Russian army. These detachments received fame as the Red Guard. The official date of the creation of the Red Army is considered on February 23, 1918. Until 1946, the officially armed forces were called the Worker-Cresan Red Army. RKKA, since 1946, the Soviet Army.

Commanders of Vasily Ivanovich Chuikov born on February 12, 1900 in silver ponds, near Vienne, Vasily Ivanovich Chuikov was the son of a peasant. From the age of 12, he worked as a student of Shornik, and when he was 18 years old, he joined the Red Army. In 1918, during the Civil War, he participated in the defense of Tsaritsyn later - Stalingrad, and in 1919 he joined the WCP B and was appointed commander of the regiment. In 1925, Chuikov graduated from the Military Academy. M.V. Frunze, then participated

Early in the morning of June 22, 1941, German troops attacked the border of the Soviet Union on a wide front from the Baltic to the Black Sea - the Great Patriotic War began. The tank troops of the Wehrmacht and the Red Army by this time were the strongest and numerous in the world. What did people like the places behind the arms of combat vehicles on both sides of the front?

The abundance of samples of uniforms and equipment adopted for supplying in the Red Army led to the fact that tankers even inside one military unit or divisions could be equipped in different ways. Shown in the photo Commanders of the Light Tanks of the Red Army and Wehrmacht look like thousands of tankers looked at the first day of war. If possible, the most common versions of uniforms and equipment are indicated in the descriptions, but, of course, the material cannot claim comprehensive completeness.

Wehrmachut

1.pilot.

In the summer of 1941, on the heads of German tankers, the pilot (Feldmütze M34) was most often seen. This headdress came to replace the special tank beret (Schutzmütze) introduced together with a set of tank uniforms on November 12, 1934.

Berta was made of black woolen cloth, equipped with an internal frame of thick felt-fabric pillows and performed a protective function, a preventing head from shocks inside the tank. However, the wearing of beret along with headphones was difficult, he looked not very beautiful on his head and was uncomfortable in everyday life. All this led to the fact that the tankers take not loved and tried to replace at any opportunity to replace with an universal pilot.

Finally, on January 15, 1941, the berets were officially removed from production and replaced with the tank units with a clouded pilot. It did not concern the crews of PZ.KPFW.38 (T) tanks and drivers of armorAutomotivers. Occasionally takes continued to wear in other parts, but it was rather an exception.

The pylot for tankers completely repeated the cut of the usual pilot of the Wehrmacht, but was not made from the gray-green tissue adopted for army teams, but from black cloth used for the rest of the uniforms of tank troops. A round of the colors of the national flag was laughed in the front of the pilot, over her angle from the sution of the color of the order of troops (Waffenfarbe), and on top of the eagle - the national emblem. For each kind of troops in the Wehrmacht used its color of the edge of the cant (the so-called dashboard). The tankers were pink.

2. Safety glasses.

Often, the tank commander watched the battle, leaning in the hatch, and various glasses were used to protect the eyes. One of the common options is presented in the photo - such glasses for the shape of the stalk called "chanters". In them, aluminum frame with strip-triplex chapels and rubber seals were held on the head with a ribbon with a rubber band.

2. Binoculars.

In the land forces of the Wehrmacht, the spread of 6 × 30 binoculars (six-time increase and the diameter of the front lens 30 mm) was obtained. The military binoculars caused a visitor grid that allowed to determine the distance and size of objects on the ground. The binoculars were kept and transferred in cases from various materials: the skin, bakelite, etc. The case could wear on the belt, which has been done through special slas, or on the shoulder strap. Could wear binoculars and without a case, putting it on the neck.

In addition to the German binoculars, trophies were often used - so, the photo shows the binoculars of Soviet production, externally practically fully corresponding to German.

3. Shirt and tie.

Under the tank jacket, it was assumed to wear a statutory shirt (Heershemd) with a tie. Tankists had gray, with a postponed collar. The shirt, put on the head, was long, until the middle of the hips, had cuts from the bottom on the sides and stuck on the buttons at the top. Buttons did not reach the niza shirt. Sleeves are long, with cuffs, fastening on buttons. Pockets on the chest shirt was not provided. The tie was black, we were wearing civilian options.

In the early summer of 1941, in a combat atmosphere, German tank workers often shot quite warm tank jackets and remained in some shirts. Because of this, it was difficult to determine the title of tankers - officers were distinguished only by the appropriate variant of the pilot. In rare cases, to eliminate the confusion, the officers independently silent shoulder straps on the shirt.

4. Tank jacket.

Sonderbekleidung der Deutschen Panzertruppen) was introduced in the German army on November 12, 1934 for wearing tank troop servicemen. It was used with insignificant changes up to 1945. There is a legend that the then chief of the headquarters of the motorized troops Colonel Geinz Guderian is involved in the development of a tank uniform, which he chose a color and invented a design with a short jacket based on a popular ski suit of that time. Black color was chosen because it is less visible to dirt, soot, oils and gasoline, which is inevitably present in each tank or armored person.

The tank jacket (Fieldjacke) sewed from black woolen cloth. On the sides on the jacket, hooks were envisaged to support the belt belt. It did not have protruding buttons or pockets, who could cling to something in the grindness of the tank, and the double smell on the chest protected well from the wind or draft. In general, the jacket was similar to modern leather jackets of bikers, famous "koshuhi". The upper two buttons of the jacket during wearing were not fastened, the lapels were turned off. In the case of bad weather, the jacket could be fastened with all buttons, and the collar raise up and cover them with the neck.

On the shoulders of the jacket through the cut and the buttons were fixed by epaulets, on the right side of the chest since 1936 the eagle was laughed in the national emblem of Nazi Germany, there were corner Unter-Officers-Winkets on the left sleeve. The edge of the wide collar had a convection on the color of the order of the troops (Waffenfarbe), and on the collar, the loops of the tank troops with turtles were attached.

Black cloth petters of German tank workers had the shape of a slanting parallelogram. In the perimeter, they were separated in dormitory, in the center there was an emblem of tank troops - a skull with crossed bones. Due to the similarity of the tank emblem with a skull with a cap of the troops of the SS Tankists, Banzerwaff often accepted the SSEs with all the consequences for them. Until now, black uniforms and skull with bones are easily introduced to the error in an inexperienced reader.

Ribbon to the Iron Cross.

On September 1, 1939, with the beginning of the war, the Order of the Iron Cross was restored to guitler. In general, the general view of the award repeated the design of the predecessor, but had some differences: the swastika in the center of the Cross and the year of the institution award in the Third Reich on the lower beam.
The lowest stage of the award was the Iron Cross II class. Awarded them wore the flag flowers with the flag of Nazi Germany, which would sell a field shape or tank jacket into the second turbine. Sometimes tankers allowed liberty in wearing tape: in many photos it is trained through the first pettits.

Chest sign "For a tank attack".

This breastplate for the crews of Banzerwaff tanks, established on December 20, 1939, there are several names in Russian: "For tank fight", "For a tank attack", "Chest assault tank mark". In German, it is called easier, but also not quite briefly - Panzerkampfwagenabzeichen (letters. "Tank icon"). To reward this sign, it was necessary to participate in three or more separate tank attacks, or get wound during a combat operation, or to show special courage during the battle operation, or get another award for courage on the battlefield.
By June 22, 1941, there were two varieties of this sign: silver and bronze. The introduction of the bronze sign was required for awarding military personnel of tank troops that are not related to the crews of tanks: the infantry of tank divisions, doctors, members of the crews of assault guns, etc.

5. Waist belt.

The belt belt with buckle (Leibriemen Mit Koppelschloss) in the Banzervaffa used the standard adopted for the other parts of the Wehrmacht. By June 1941, two main types of soldier buckles were common in the ground forces, which differed visually: with the eagle of the Wehrmacht and the Swastika and the Eagle of Rehensover.

An ordinary and nonsense belt was manufactured from a thick wide strip of the skin, to which a hook and vibrant with holes for teeth buckles were sewn to adjust the completeness of the belt. The buckle was put on the belt of the belt, and her teeth were included in the strying holes, after which the belt was stuck with a hook.

At Tankists, the belt was not the basis for the placement of all gear, like infantry, and a more decorative function - cut the uniform allowed to work fine and without a belt, which can be seen in many historical photographs. The belt was necessary on the construction, as well as to carry personal weapons in the holster. In this case, holster was placed on the left side or in front of the left on the stomach.

6. Low weapons.

German tankers most of them were armed with one of the two types of pistols under the 9 × 19 mm cartridge - "Luger" P08, he is the famous "parabelum" or "Walter" P38 (in the photo).

Luger was designed at the beginning of the twentieth century, but established himself with powerful, reliable and accurate weapons. Because of its characteristics and recognizable appearance, it was the desired trophy among the soldiers of the anti-Hitler coalition armies. Walter was a relatively new design developed in 1938, and by the beginning of the war from the USSR, a large number of these pistols were in service with the tank crews of Banzerwaff.

A pistol in the holster hanging on the belt belt either side either on the left either shifted forward to the left side of the abdomen. In the photo, the German tanker is armed with the Walter P38 gun, which used two types of Cobur: one massive, from molded skin, which is often called among the "suitcase" collectors, the second simplified - it is shown in the illustration.

7. Tank pants.

Complete to Bereret and Jacket Tankists on November 12, 1934, Pants were introduced (Tuchhose). Just like a jacket, they were made from black woolen cloth.

Circus pants reminded ski pants of that time, tightly clapping her waist and non-shyless movements of the legs, with wide straight croes, gathering around the ankles. On trousers there were two brazy pockets with curly valves in front and two pockets with valves from behind. All valves closed on buttons. Also in front was made small pockets for hours. Pants on the buttons were stigled and drove in front of the waist with the help of a strap crawled to the belt.

Pants without change sewed until 1945. The same in the picture, they were worn by all tankists regardless of the title, from ordinary to the general, because there were no edges or lamps.

8. Boots.

The main types of shoes of Panzerwaff Tankers in the summer of 1941 were two. The first - shoes on the laces (Schnürschuhe). Tank pants gathered around their top and fastened to a button, closing the top of the boot and forming a characteristic silhouette.

Typanists usually used standard shoes supplied to the Wehrmacht. However, the service in the tank troops did not provide for long hiking transitions, therefore, traditional iron spikes and horseshoes on socks and heels were extremely rarely used. In addition, the boots or boots shoven the boots or boots alone along the armor of tanks and armored cars, which presented an additional danger to the shoe owner.

In addition to shoes, tankers wore ordinary marching boots (Stiefel) with wide short tops, sometimes shorting them specially. Soles and heels boots just like the shoes, they tried not to pour. In the event that the tankman wore boots, pants trousers refuel in the top and worn with nasup. The boots were more convenient than the shoes: they did not require lacing, they could be quickly shore or removed. In historical photos, it can be seen that wearing boot was widespread in the Troops of the Wehrmacht.

RKKKA

9. Headset.

The RKKK tank headset, developed in the mid-30s of the twentieth century, by virtue of its design created the silhouette of the Soviet tanker to this day. It turned out to be so successful that the same design is still used in the Army of Russia as the crews of tanks and other armored vehicles, and with some simplifications, in the Airborne Forces as a jumping helmet.

By 1934, the USSR troke troops grew and actively developed, the number of tanks had already been calculated by many hundreds. There is a need to develop tank overalls, one of whose elements was a headset. Sheltered headsets from durable and dense black matter, which in documents is sometimes called "krza" (photo at the top), but in this case it is important not to confuse it with the material of the soldiers' boots, with which the fabric has nothing to do. Another, more rare, material was thin black leather (in the photo).

The helmet had a lining from the bike, which was climbed by rollers stuffed with horse hair, felt, sliced \u200b\u200bcloth or technical wool. Opposite the ears were made by pockets with valves, in which headphones could insert, and at the expense of the straps on top and on the back of the head, the size of the headset under the head of the tanker could be adjusted. Sheltered headset with a chiffer strap. Summer and winter versions of the headset - the latter had inside the fur lining.

Protective glasses.

To protect the eye of tankers from dust, branches and small stones during the movement, special safety glasses were relying. They had a different design, but the photo contains the most common type, which almost unchanged can be found now.

The glasses were relying to everyone without exception to members of the crews of tanks, transport trucks, car chaffins and their assistants, tractor drivers, mechanics, carving, carbuildings, military personnel of the military and auxiliary parts of mechanized compounds.

Structurally, glasses were ordinary glasses in the frame, fixed on a leather or dermal headband, which retained from falling out with a rubber band with an adjusting buckle. Thanks to the design, the glasses were compactly folded and did not occupy a lot of space during storage.

10.Gimnastreka.

Until February 1, 1941, the uniforms of tankers, including the gymnastrock, was distinguished from other labor of troops with color: it was "steel". However, then this difference was eliminated, and in the spring of 1941, the tank worms received the summer gymnasther and the sharovar of a single green color. By June 22, 1941, the ordinary and junior team composition of the tank troops was dressed in the soldiers of the 1935 sample soldiers, which were naked tank buttons.

The 1935 sample gymnastrod was introduced into the Red Army instead of the 1931 gymnasther. There were two pockets closed with buttons with buttons closed on the chest. She also flooded with buttons hidden under the plank. On the elbows were lack of caps of an additional layer of fabric. Sleeves - with cuffs, staging on two buttons. The gymnastrics made of cotton melange fabric were manufactured.

The gymnasther had a postponed collar, which was laughed with colored buttercups with a field and karts by the family of troops, in this case - black with red. In the corner of the loop, the emblem of the order of troops was mounted - a golden stylized silhouette of a BT tank. The tank emblem was introduced on March 10, 1936. Tank loops were made of black velvet from the older and secondary team formulation, the ordinary and junior commanders met the clouds.

11. Map Lanya.

For carrying and convenient use of topographic maps in the Red Army, a special two-sided pallet bag was used. It is this item that is often called the tablet, often confused with a field bag. The pallet was attached to the field bag and rushed inside either instead of her.

The pallet was made of leather, closed on top to the valve. In order for the valve accidentally, two buttons were provided, and in order not to open the entire bag, a small strap with the same button was made in the lower right corner. Inside the Palest was one large branch in which a folded topographic map was laid. For ease of use, the inner partition of the Palest was made of transparent celluloid, which protected the map from rain and scratches.

When carrying a pallet or clung to the coupling of a single hiking equipment of 1932, or shifted over the shoulder on a thin leather strap. After the Great Patriotic War from this item, the equipment refused, making a compartment for cards inside the field bag.

12. Sample gear of 1932 and 1935.

On July 1, 1932, a single hiking equipment was introduced for the middle, older and highest boss of the land forces of the Red Army, which is often referred to as a year. The belt from this gear is very similar to the one that was used later in the Soviet and Russian armies. The main difference is in the material buckles: it was not brass.

Equipment made of leather of different shades, from dark brown to brown-red or almost yellow. The set of equipment included a belt belt with a double buckle, which was put on two couplings with semirings from above and below. The ends of the shoulder straps were fasted to the upper semirings, the field bag and straps for checkers were fastened to the bottom (those whom she relied). In addition, the equipment included holster for a revolver, a field bag and a pallet for cards.

In the hiking and guard, it was assumed to wear a whistle in a cover with a cord on one of the shoulder straps, a flask in a cover on the belt and binoculars in the neck case, and the gas mask in the bag was put on top. Depending on the shape of clothing and the kind of troops, a single hiking equipment was worn with one or two shoulder straps. The pilots wore only one shoulder strap.

On December 3, 1935, new outfit and signs of differences for the entire personnel of the Red Army were introduced. He undergone significant changes to the belt belt, the buckle of which began to make from brass with a slit five-pointed star. He began to fasten one shine, refused from double shoulder belts.

In the troops by 1941, both types of equipment were used for the middle, older and highest boss, tankers were not regulated, wearing one or two shoulder straps. In addition, judging by the photographs and films, the United Hiking Equipment of 1932 or 1935 could wear elders and assistants of political officers.

13. Personal weapon.

The main personal weapon of the commander of the tank and the driver of the driver was the Nagana Revolver of the sample of 1895 with some minor changes made to the design in the USSR in the 1920s and 1930s.

One of the important reasons why the revolver was the main personal weapon of tankers was the presence of specially closing tanks in the tanks, through which the crew, if necessary, could shoot from the enemy. The main Soviet pistol TT was poorly suitable for these purposes: his barrel could not be put into the boot. Nevertheless, with a lack of Naganov, Tankists were given precisely TT.

Wearing a revolver in the holster on the right side. Holster (top photo) was used from a set of hiking equipment of 1932, and in this case, the shoulder straps cling to the semiring on it. In another embodiment, the holster was simply put on the waist belt of the sample 1932 or 1935.

An ordinary and junior commander could wear a holster on a simple soldier belt, but more often a holster version with a special shoulder strap was used. In this case, the belt belt pressed the holster strap to the body, excluding her swing when moving. In 1940, a universal holster appeared for a TT pistol and a revolver Nagan (the bottom photo). She was worn like an early holster.

14. Field bag.

Used by the command staff first in the army of the Russian Empire, and later in the Red Army. In the 20s, she had undergone some constructive changes, and in 1932 he entered into a single hiking equipment of the command composition of the Red Army.

There was a bag for storing and carrying documents, compass, cevimimeters, ruler, written accessories and tools. Often, personal belongings were placed in her. A field bag was worn on the belt either on a special strap over the shoulder. Closed valve, which was fixed with a strap through the buckle. A field bag was made initially of the skin, but in 1941 some bags began to sew dark green color from KRIZ. After the Great Patriotic War in the design of a field bag made a significant change - they made a compartment for cards, closed with a transparent celluloid to protect against moisture when used in the rain.

Compass.

The oldest military compass was constructed in 1907 by V.N. Adrianov. He had a simple design and phosphorescent illumination of the arrows and limb to work at night.

The body of the compass was made from the Bakelite, which was put on a rotating ring from brass (later aluminum). Inside the compass enclosure, a circular Lamb scale was placed, separated by 120 divisions. To sight to local landmarks and removal of samples on the compass scale on the rotating ring of the compass, the sighting device is made: a fly, a cable and a reference pointer in the form of an arrow on the inside of the ring. The compass could be put on the hand, in the marching position was transferred in a field bag. He was part of the single hiking equipment of 1932. Used when working with a map and orientation on the ground.

15. Jumpsuit.

As the type of special clothing of tankers, the jumpsuit appeared in the 20s of the twentieth century. In RKKA, overalls for tankers were adopted for supply in the next decade. Early samples of this clothing sewed from a durable painted cotton fabric of dark blue and fastened to buttons. Later, a folding valve appeared behind the back, zipper was introduced. The main purpose of the overalls is to protect the outfit from dirt when driving in the tank and conducting technical works.

The overalls was a combination of a jacket and a sharovar that constitute one unit. Rear on the waist was made a flap valve. The overall collar is postponed, with a hook. Sleeves are three-way, with elbows and with protracted hlystics for tightening the sleeves, without a cuff. At the bottom of the sleeves, two adjusting buttons for hlystics were sewn. Pants at the bottom had stucks for tument, also fastening on adjusting buttons. Front on the side of the front pods in the form of a rhombus, and on the back - amplifiers-lei.

The belt sewn up to the rear connector valve and delayed the metal buckle in front. Two hooks were sewn on the skokes of the overalls on the waist, for which the metal loops of the valve, held it in the fastened position. The jumpsuit had one pocket with a valve on the left half of the chest and one pocket on the right hip, covered by a semi-chamber; Pocket valves fastened on a button.

Along with the zipper, the overalls were made with a button of buttons, covered with a plank. The color of the fabric of the overalls was not necessarily dark blue - he could be gray, there are mentions about khaki color overalls. Black overalls appeared in the troops only after the beginning of the Great Patriotic War. On the postponed collar of overalls could be fervently similar to gymnast. In historical photos, you can see overalls both with loops, and without them.

16. Boots.

Initially, leather Yuft boots were the only footwear of the Russian soldier: shoes with windings were introduced only at the beginning of 1915, when the army added sharply in numbers and the boot began to be lacking. In the Red Army, the boots came to the supply of all kinds of troops.

In the mid-30s, the USSR was invented by the material, which is now called "Kirz". Artificial butadiene-sodium rubber with imitation of skin texture was applied to the tissue basis. This material was used to make individual parts of equipment and sewing soldier boots. The tank parts of the Red Army received leather boots made of UFTTI or YALO skin. Shoes with windings or kiza boots Tankers did not rely.
