Mongolian infantry c.1920

[Ignatieff]

Does anyone have any visual references for Mongolian infantry that would have fought with Ungern-Sterberg?

Any and all help gratefully received 

Happy New Year!

Does this mean you are starting to play test the next scenario book

Here's a couple of pictures that I know of.
If your off to York next month I'd be intrigued to know more.

Mongolians c 1924 - not the Barons's men but I wonder why nobody  has not made one of these.

Is that an A Ford?

Obviously can't be. Production of Model A started 1928

I'm wondering about that dating of that photo then, because that car looks much newer (and obviously it's far from new in the photo) than anything on offer during WWI.

I was considering that to. But on the other hand by when would a model A have reached Mongolia? Early 30's, probably.

Nope my money was on a Dodge Brothers touring car. They'd been floating around in the area since 1920. In fact several American expeditions used them in Mongolia through the 20's.
I made one for a commission 16 months ago in 1/32.

On these photos, the Soviet copy of the Ford A - GAZ-A. Began produced in the USSR in 1932.





Red Mongols Van Hure and their "red" instructors. 1921.

That's the theme on my forum on "white" in Mongolia: http://siberia-miniatures.ru/forum/showthread.php?tid=415&fid=29&block=10

And "red" in the same place: http://siberia-miniatures.ru/forum/showthread.php?tid=211&fid=12&block=0

There are some interesting photos.


And there are still very blurred photos with instructions on the uniforms of the Mongolian Red Army 1921-24

You are a treasure trove, cuprum.

Good to know. Do they exist in 1/48 to 56 or 28mm?

In the early 30s, the explorer Sven Hedin rattled around Sinkiang in a fleet of Model As, donated by that deplorable old nazi fanboy Mr Ford himself.
