Hopefuly the members can help you. Have you tried the Kiev Victory Museum? , G.

Hello!!!
You know we tried German cultural center but we need uniform of 1998 - it's rather new and we don't have it in museum...it would too simple, ehhh....

Why don't you try the German embassy? There must be some BGS (or Bundespolizei, as they are now called) people there, and as far as I can tell, the only difference between now and then is the shoulder straps (in 1998, still like the Wehrmacht Beamte type) and the collar tabs (like Wehrmacht). I bet the guys in Kiev do not have the brand-new blue uniform yet.

regards, Karl

Tanya,yes sorry ,too new for the museum.

Crowback,

The uniform you link to is an East German Volkspolizei uniform, not border police. In East Germany it was the Grenztruppen der DDR who provided border control. In West Germany it was the Bundesgrenzschutz as Karl mentioned. Wrong uniform to answer this question.
