A piece of Cold War history, as seen worn by horse-mounted officers of the East German military, aka the Nationale Volksarmee (National People's Army).

From 1849 to 1990, the Federal Republic of Germany (West Germany) and the German Democratic Republic (East Germany) were isolated from each other by a heavily fortified Inner German Border consisting of high fences, walls, barbed wire, alarms, gun towers, mines, and more. Patrolling this border on the Eastern side were approximately 50,000 armed East German guards, many on horse back to better cover the large areas of wilderness along this border.
