New Romantic Posted March 15, 2008 Share #1 Posted March 15, 2008 Any body know of any places online where I can have in country style name tapes and US Army tapes made? Since my impression is 25th ID in 1966 I feel it's an important part of the 2nd pattern jungle fatigues I will be wearing. Moore Militaria only offers the current style subdued tapes on web twill which wouldn't look right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New Romantic Posted March 21, 2008 Author Share #7 Posted March 21, 2008 I ordered some insignia on Monday and received my order yesterday. I'm very pleased with the work and it will help my Wolfhounds 1966 impression out a lot. A free "Wolfhounds" tab was even included! Here are some photos of the insignia. Name and US Army tapes, top set on OG 107 sateen, bottom set on twill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New Romantic Posted March 21, 2008 Author Share #10 Posted March 21, 2008 Example of insignia back showing how they are marked as repros- the red stitching is reinforced with glue to prevent it from being removed. Also the patches are sometimes marked "R08"- Repro 2008. An interesting touch is the use of Vietnamese literature backing the insignia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
