Photo ordinary of the 180th infantry regiment Vindavsky (?) RIA

Original photo format "visit portrait" in great collectible condition. Soldiers uniformed in shape army infantry sample 1881 – wing cap with the emblem, the uniform of the "Russian cut" without buttons, with clasp on hooks, trousers and high boots. The collar of one uniform color and light blue shoulder straps indicate the belonging to the fourth regiment of the division. It is logical to assume that the lower ranks serving in the fourth regiment was quartered in Penza province, 45th infantry division, 180th infantry Vindavsky. However this version is contradicted by the presence of the hat above the coat of arms insignia parts, as this regiment formed in 1898 from the same reserve regiment, has not managed to earn this high award. Perhaps the distinction is the same non-statutory panache, like an officer's scarf, which is the lower rank were not supposed to under any circumstances. The guarantee of authenticity.
