Sleeve insignia of the Russian Navy from 1917

By order № 125 of the Navy Ministry of the Russian Provisional Government, from April 16, 1917 was provided: #Abolishment of the hitherto used shoulder rank insignia. #Abolishment of the (naval) scarf. #Deletion of any monogram, or initial letter on weapons and equipment. #Paint over of the cockade center on caps with red color, until availability of the peaked cap with new national emblem. The traditional shoulder rank insignia were replaced by golden sleeve strips for naval officers, admiralty officers, and naval engineers, as well as – after completion of mandatory examinations – praporshchiks and officers of the hydrographical service. Silver sleeve strips were introduced to officers of the admiralty staff, before completion of mandatory examinations, as well to ship engineers, officials of the naval administration and naval physicians with officer rank or status. Both cuff insignias were used in uniforms with the executive curl. As discrimination criteria to specific appointments or assignments additional corps colours on the lower part of sleeve stripes was determinate: *red = ship engineers; *raspberry coloured = naval administration; *dark blue = hydrographical service; *white = physicians The table below shows examples of rank insignia of the Russian Navy, to be worn on the lower part of uniform cuffs, as to the order № 125 of the Russian Navy Ministry from April 16, 1917.
