The Bolshevik Red Army wore both original Imperial pattern shirt-tunics and ones of a new model, with or without the coloured stripes, but some added with two breast pockets. The wide variety of uniforms worn by both sides during the Civil War arose from supply and production difficulties in the chaotic conditions of the time. </p><p data-rte-fromparser="true" data-rte-empty-lines-before="1">In 1924 the razgovory straps were abolished, and in 1935 the gymnastyorka was modified to accommodate the reintroduction of personal ranks in the Red Army.

The M43 remained in service until the gymnastyorka was finally abolished in 1969. <!-- RTE::{"spaces":0,"type":"LINE_BREAK"} -->The gymnastyorka was also adopted by several Soviet satellite states such as Bulgaria, Mongolia, Albania, and North Korea. Enlisted soldiers in the North Korean Army continues to wear the gymnastyorka as part of their field uniform. <!-- RTE::{"spaces":0,"type":"LINE_BREAK"} -->The Tsarist police also wore the white gymnastyorka as a summer garment until 1917. Their successors, the Soviet Militsiya, continued to wear this traditional garment until the 1950s. </p> <br /><strong data-rte-washtml="1" class="error" data-rte-attribs=" class=error">Cite error: <code data-rte-washtml="1"><ref></code> tags exist, but no <code data-rte-washtml="1"><references/></code> tag was found</strong><p /> <!-- Saved in parser cache with key military:rte-parser-cache:325676 --> Loading editor Below are some commonly used wiki markup codes.
