Photo staff clerk (?) sons, 1900s.

Cabinet-portrait. In the early twentieth century the lower ranks while in the service it was strictly forbidden to marry. Exception was done only for sverhsrochnoy. Apparently, the character photos fall into this category. Since it has no non-commissioned officer differences (stripes on shoulder straps) and therefore did not graduate from a training team, it is assumed that the front us non-combatant, whose office does not include being in the senior category. Such could be the clerks to the military headquarters (but not battalion or regimental), or artisans (blacksmiths, lorinci, carpenters, etc.). Although sverhsrochnoy ordinary and not enjoyed many of the privileges, put to the enlisted, but the nature of the service made it highly profitable. In addition to the headquarters of the Turkestan military district, Tashkent was a lot of district military institutions and units, which could be depicted. Cap – sample set to summer time in the southern districts, with a white cover that covers it completely, including the visor. Such a cover fastened at back with hooks, and the badge was diagonals on top of it on the front crown. Summer (gymnastics) shirt, judging by the cut, sewn to order. Shoulder straps of cloth of crimson (most common in Turkestan) color, with no encryption. Beautiful story illustrating the life of a soldier.
