great jackets Andrei,bravo!The FANK jacket is the one I like most

Here is my contribution. I got this off of eBay some time ago. The seller told me that it was worn by an individual by the name of Joe Ballard. All the insignia look period made and would appear that this was worn by a non-airborne US adviser to this particular ARVN Ranger battalion.
