The raincoat is a really nice find too! This type of shoulder boards (for raincoat ) are rare as they are, let alone with the border guards' pipping. And it's just a nice touch that you have everything that comes with the coat: belt and hood; as these are detachable and did indeed get lost many times.
Wow! That vânători de munte beret is very rare, and super nice of course. And the fact that the cockade has the coloured backing is even rarer. It was something extra that not everybody wanted. This coloured backing may be seen used with some insignia too. For example, if you were to put a military academy insignia on the jacket I commented on earlier, you could add such an element to it.
Regarding the general's uniform, the trousers, I find them interesting. Usually, the two thicker lines of pipping would have had the original thin red pipping in the middle. If I were to guess, this may be an earlier issue. And, of course, nothing is capable of beating that beautiful golden embroidery that the visor hat and the rank elements the jacket presents.
You may notice that the intendență visor hat presents 2 holes above the cockade. This is a sign that after the revolution, it was still used with the communist cockade but a golden eagle with a plain Romanian flag on its chest was added. This may be seen on many post revolution visor hats, as the new non-communist pieces ( uniforms, insignia and so on ) took time to reach every unit.
Awesome video, i love collecting stuff from wars and countries that aren't really about. Right now im working a mid 90's post velvet revolution Czech impression
Beautiful collection would love to get my hands on an Romania uniform

I really like that you make videos more often

It would be neat if you could get your hand on a navy officer uniform.
The loops that are on the border guard colonel's jacket are for: right side-the military academy insignia, left side-a ribbon bar
I also would say that it is a slightly rarer piece to have, a jacket with loops. You don't see them on many RSR models.
