Original Bulgarian royal straps used before and during the Second world war. They were designed for WWII combat uniform of some special units. Straps were used only by combat sergeant officers of the Infantry. Had to be attached to belt in order to support it and hold the heavy full of ammunition pouches. (we offer wide belts of this type on our other auctions)
The straps were part of the combat and drill paratrooper camouflage uniforms during the WWII. Here below we attach a photo of paratrooper regiment commander – colonel Noev.
