gwb123 Posted March 27, 2011 Share #3 Posted March 27, 2011 There are so many ways to answer this...many variations depending on unit and time frame. I suggest you get hold of Paul Miraldi, who is a member of this Forum under pwmiraldi1967 . He's working on a series of books on Special Forces uniforms of the Vietnam War. He's on here off and on, but he has been pretty busy with his books. It might be better to contact him direct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gwb123 Posted March 30, 2011 Share #9 Posted March 30, 2011 A lot depends if you are trying to portray a soldier in the field, or one in the base camp. As Kammo-Man noted, uniforms actually worn in the field often had minimal to none insignia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
