Actually, if the guy in your picture were Russian, his shirt would say OXPAHA (Latin alphabet = Okhrana) -- which means "security" in the Russian language but which also was the official name of the Czar's much dreaded secret police. You'll see that exact name on shirts and uniforms today around ritzy hotels in Moscow and other places frequented by Russia's nouveaux riches. Kinda creepy, IMHO.
