The item is a Soviet NKVD Officer Visor Cap accessory, designed for minifigures.
Soviet NKVD Officer Peaked Cap (Blue & Red) This is a premium 3D printed and hand-painted custom headgear accessory. It accurately replicates the infamous “Blue Cap” worn by the Soviet internal security forces.
-
Cornflower Blue Crown: The top part of the hat is painted in a distinct blue color, the signature shade of the NKVD.
-
Red Band & Piping: The band wrapping around the cap is painted red, and there is matching red piping along the top edge of the crown.
-
Insignia: A small Gold Star is painted on the front of the red band, identifying it as a Soviet military piece.
Background: This specific color combination (Blue crown with Red band) identifies the wearer as an officer of the NKVD (People’s Commissariat for Internal Affairs). During World War II, the NKVD were not regular frontline infantry; they were the secret police and internal security troops responsible for maintaining order, guarding borders, and serving as “blocking detachments” behind the main army lines. In a historical LEGO diorama, this figure represents a Political Commissar or a high-ranking security officer, distinct from the standard Red Army soldiers.
