I have my USMC name tapes made on Okinawa in 1963. Can post a photo if any interest. Made of the old hbt material as I recall ( buried in my sea-bag for a long time). They rapidly faded to almost white in a very short time. Definitely NOT authorized state-side......I was early-outed upon return to CONUS in June '64 and was told immediately to remove them at MCRD San Diego....never mind I was being discharged in a week. That's my Corps!


i hope you can provide the picture sir.. i know its end of 2021 already. 
 

anyway, i just acquired these shirt. 
The name tape appears to be Okinawa-made, as described in this thread. 
“Chevron” HBT, USMC WWII material based.
