Actually, to anyone who might know, are those Japanese or Russian uniforms?

They're Japanese uniforms.

Japanese uniforms. At that time period, pretty much all armies wore riding boots and tunics, and red cap bands/insignia have always been common.

that's cause they didn't have armor and some places, like Poland, still used horses.

Actually thats untrue, they had armored divisions.

And the ones patrolling and around villages are the not-armored ones, so it's kinda true in this case.

i meant body armor. again though, Poland pretty much sucked, all they had was horses.

As if Germany didn't have horses and Poland didn't have tanks.

All things considered, I think they did fine.
