National Commissariat for Internal Affairs. the domestic arm of Soviet police intelligence, the KGB is over and above- and international. Both are in effect Federal agencies of the central government. NKVD no longer exists, the paralell agency is called the MVD -Ministry for Internal Affairs. they have field offices in all major Russian and some branch line ( technically Russo-Soviet) cities like Odessa in the White Ukraine. NKVD men had specially issued cameras based on the German Leica, they are marked NKVD- CCCP or YCCP (the latter for Ukrainian issues) and the nearest Field-office depot code. circa l938. No YCCP items made after l938 by order of Joe Stalin who was bent on (Russianizing) the Soviet union- eliminating provincial autonomy.
