Default Russian Troops 1915

Greetings all,
Here are some pics of some Russian troops in 1915, showing edged weapons being carried. The officer shown prominently is the brother of the Czar.

I hope that these are of some interest.

Nice pics, Brian. Yes, always of interest and a great find for future seekers of such. Interesting that many of the men pictured carry both the shashqa and qama on their persons! Double protection for these fierce fighters!
