This isn't really a very popular hobby. But while looking through the AK stuff, I took a few photos of my favorite pieces. To me it's neat to think about who wore the uniform and what they went through. I have a whole side of my closet devoted to military camo but these are a few of my favorites.
Bosnian assult vest- it has all kinds of straps and whatnot that I have no idea what they were used for.

Can't go wrong with the russian winter coat for hunting. Ignore the Sears hanger lol Figure they should know how to stay warm.

Yeah it's good stuff. Sounds like you are starting your son on the same gear my father gave me when I started hunting. I still have the size small jacket in my drawer. Of course it doesn't fit anymore but it's still in fine shape.
 
I get the most use out of this Croatian vest. It supposedly was used in the war. I found this paper in the pocket. It would be great if there are any croatian members to translate it.

I have an old swiss helmet from '42 or so. When I got it there was still a tag inside saying who it had been issued to, I thought that was awesome.

Something tells me google translate was a little off on this one...
 
Wow you have JNA, HVO, and BIH uniforms from the Bosnian wars. All 3 sides of the conflicts. Where do you come across this stuff??
