kammo-man Posted March 20, 2020 Share #1683 Posted March 20, 2020 So this pattern is from 1974 -75 ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites
toitoine66 Posted March 21, 2020 Share #1684 Posted March 21, 2020 No this is more around the year 1968 to 69 but " Late War, heavy weight dense pattern " is the denomination from the Holy book "Tiger Paterns a guide to the Vietnam war 's tigerstripe combat fatigue patterns and uniforms". when this guy said "late war" for the TS that 's more around the year 69.

Longhorn92 Posted March 21, 2020 Share #1688 Posted March 21, 2020 FYI the old school, long time experienced collectors have always had their own names for the various patterns. That book and the dude who wrote it rubbed people the wrong way. Without getting into back and forths, that is just how it is.

kammo-man Posted March 22, 2020 Share #1689 Posted March 22, 2020 Look when an author alienated his captive audience it’s a sour note that cancels out much of his work. Owen Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites
toitoine66 Posted March 23, 2020 Share #1690 Posted March 23, 2020 So, don't take it bad I just try to understand, did every things is wrong in that book? or not complete ? or just outdated ? Link to post Share on other sites
Nkomo Posted March 24, 2020 Share #1691 Posted March 24, 2020 This was a recent purchase and I never would have touched this one if it hadn't have come from a friend of mine and if it hadn't have came from the Bragg area. This is a late 80s or early 90s era Tiger Stripes Products jacket with sewn on tapes and SSI. Jacket is sun faded from use. From my research, I have tentatively identified the soldier it belonged to and he was assigned to 7th SFG throughout Central and South America. I have reached out to him, but have not heard back from him yet. Always looking for US and foreign militaria from the Central American wars circa 1970-1990 Link to post Share on other sites

Nkomo Posted March 24, 2020 Share #1693 Posted March 24, 2020 Insignia appears to have been sewn to jacket for quite some time. Always looking for US and foreign militaria from the Central American wars circa 1970-1990 Link to post Share on other sites
