cszakolczai Posted January 3, 2010 Share #8 Posted January 3, 2010 I saw the one on ebay... went for a pretty penny. I was hoping the seller kept all the uniforms together, but he didnt seem to mind about the history and just the cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping the seller kept all the uniforms together, but he didnt seem to mind about the history and just the cash. I thought the price it sold for was a bargain. My bid was incredibly higher then what I ended up paying for it. Maybe you didn't read the description, but the seller was the veteran's son. The veteran had passed away and he was helping his mother to try and make some extra money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhk Posted January 3, 2010 Share #11 Posted January 3, 2010 Wow...thats just awesome shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiGilio Posted January 3, 2010 Share #12 Posted January 3, 2010 Thats an incredible shirt. The veterans son was selling some great items. Hes still listing stuff too. I usually wait towards the end of auctions to put bids in but dont use any programs. There was some items I wanted but I was stupid and took a nap right before the end of the auction and slept through them all . A decent amount went higher than I expected but I wanted the short timers calander and posters pretty bad and would probably of won them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Copran Posted January 4, 2010 Share #18 Posted January 4, 2010 Have you ever noticed that the date on the both shirts are the same ? I wonder what could it be ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pwmiraldi67 Posted January 4, 2010 Author Share #19 Posted January 4, 2010 Have you ever noticed that the date on the both shirts are the same ? I wonder what could it be ? I think I remeber Bob telling me it was some big pow-wow with Group commanders the LLDB and the Yard higher ups. I think it may have had something to do w/ the anniversrary of the FULRO uprising Im wondering if its 2-4-69 Feb 04 1969 or the European way April-02-1969 paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GIl Sanow Posted January 5, 2010 Share #20 Posted January 5, 2010 I believe Aaron's correct name was Harold R Aaron, not Henry. I used to have one of his LTG Fatigue shirts. G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nguoi tien su Posted January 5, 2010 Share #23 Posted January 5, 2010 European way April-02-1969 Paul, Vietnamese documents are usually written European style. That should be the case here. Both shirts are really nice and the price of the last one was fair. Bob was lucky many people were buzy with Xmas and new year. :thumbsup: Bob, did you notice that the 1st line (BCH) had been removed? :think: :ermm: My guess is that the shirt were all made following the same pattern, but only the commander was offered one with the Bộ Chỉ Huy line. Thus the removal of the line on the "others" (there must be others)? Typical Vietnamese! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vintageproductions Posted January 5, 2010 Share #24 Posted January 5, 2010 There are known photos of the meeting, as I have seen them before. Esp. one of Aaron wearing his, and he is drinking out of a rice wing jug. The problem is they are very dark and hard to make out details. Every American is wearing one of these shirts in the photos. My shirt does not look like it had any other embroidery on it, as there are no pulls to the material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
