MrKalashnikov96 Posted December 16, 2014 Share #1 Posted December 16, 2014 I have this past vest with USMC on the left breast and according to friends it is almost unheard of and I am curious on its authenticity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B229 Posted December 16, 2014 Share #4 Posted December 16, 2014 Standard PASGT vest that someone applied one of the iron-on USMC markings to. They were intended for use on uniforms, like BDU's, but you can iron them onto anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrKalashnikov96 Posted December 16, 2014 Author Share #5 Posted December 16, 2014 do you think that it was done by the marines or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B229 Posted December 16, 2014 Share #6 Posted December 16, 2014 do you think that it was done by the marines or not? It was probably done by a Marine, most likely the one who wore it, but it was not done by the USMC officially. You could buy the iron-on insignia sets in the PX. I've seen plenty of Marines who put emblems on their PASGT helmet covers using the iron-ons from the set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWIIman1944 Posted May 1, 2017 Share #7 Posted May 1, 2017 Very interesting! How much did you get it for? I bought mine off of a veteran for $50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRIS FORD Posted January 27, 2018 Share #8 Posted January 27, 2018 I wore one of these exact vests (sans EGA of course) when doing armed brow watch on CVN-73 when I was a Airman in Weapons Dept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
