kammo-man Posted September 3, 2015 Share #1226 Posted September 3, 2015 Soar, It may be him..... He may have had more than 1 set. My set was issued to an black SF guy who was shot 3 weeks into his deployment. I also have 2 sets of his Leopards. I also have his Red team scarf that he MAY be waring in this picture. owen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaxon Posted September 12, 2015 Share #1227 Posted September 12, 2015 Hi, This 1968 dated VNMC 2nd pattern Tigerstripe shirt came in a trade for a WWI CEF grouping. This piece came with some other tasty VN era pieces including a CLT patched MACVSOG JJ I posted earlier today. Named to Emch, a 101st Airborne Division trooper. No rank and left sleeve SSI and no signs of there ever being any. Any thoughts from members as to why this shirt has no evidence of a SSI and or who Mr. Emch was would be more than welcome. Cheers, Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klaxon Posted September 14, 2015 Share #1233 Posted September 14, 2015 Hi Owen, Sure I'd be honoured. Any of the guys in my collection are yours to use. I'm hoping to find out something about this guy and perhaps why he has no SSI on the left skeeve? It's odd. I hope alls good with you and the fam. Mis the Sunday hangs? Lena says ?

American Graffiti Posted September 14, 2015 Share #1234 Posted September 14, 2015 That is a very nice patched tiger. Exactly what you'd want, certainly book worthy. Well done Klax! AG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaxon Posted September 14, 2015 Share #1235 Posted September 14, 2015 Thanks very much AG. Was super happy to get it. Been lucky as of late and I'm thankful for it. I just need to find out who this Emch cat was and what he was doing after the 101st. Cheers, M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
