No buckle. I used a Claymore bag during Desert Storm and while in Bosnia. The vest was a pain in my 4th point of contact. All guys with a M203 were issued the vest but I don't remember anyone ever using one. I still have one of my issued vest packed away.

Thanks.

Can any of you more knowledgeable guys ID this hallmark?

This set of custom ribbons were with some CBI patches that I posted awhile back Found them all together in an antique store.

Both LRS units I served in the early and mid 90's it was still a requirement to have the paraglider patch sewn on the garrison cap for inspection purposes. We never wore them. I wore the garrison cap with the patch while on recruiting duty in the late 90's.

Thanks for that.

Maybe. 1st Battalion, 51st infantry was part of 1st Armored Division until June of 1984 when it was deactivated. Alpha, Bravo and Charlie companies reflagged to Delta companies in three different battalions in 1 AD. So maybe from 70's early 80's.

Thanks.

51st Infantry

Found these hanging behind the meat counter in a rural grocery store. The guy working the counter called the owner for me. A deal was made and I brought them home.

As my screen name implies, I am a retired 1SG also. Here are some of mine.

Thank You.
