Show Your BDUs

[Page-Hendryx]

 

A couple of aviation-related colonel's BDU's;  the top one is clearly a VN vet, with service in the 1st Aviation Brigade.  The second is dated '90' so I'm guessing that the 25th Infantry Division flash is for VN.

Hello,  I'm MPage and I have a problem.

[Page-Hendryx]

Following the aviator colonels' BDU's from post 276, are these two;  I wish I hadn't sold them but...there it is.

Order precedence is incorrect.

Collectmedals, the ribbon order of precedence is incorrect.

 

Swap the location of the Army Reserve Components Achievement Medal (Yellow ribbon with red) for the Army Service Ribbon "fruit loop" color. IMG_1441.JPG.09c6cd212acef808a58f2ee8bab002c8.jfif

Swap the location of the Army Reserve Components Achievement Medal (Yellow ribbon with red) for the Army Service Ribbon "fruit loop" color. The ASR is the lowest in precedence.

An interesting Lockheed-Martin taped contractor BDU I picked up the other day.

A duo of 205th Infantry Brigade tops, different styles of nametapes.  Woven versus Nylon.

Here's two more, one is lightweight. Both have a "combat" jump indicator on the parachutist's wings. I think the Field Artillery LTC's was worn by the 2nd battalion, 319th Field Artillery commander.

Wow, HALO with combat jump star - I've never seen one of those!

Right?  Likely CCT, could have been PJ or SOWT.

[Ewart]

A bit of research has led it to two possibles:

 

Master Sergeant Bruce W. Dixon who made 3 combat jumps in Afghanistan or Master Sgt. Michael Lamonica.

I have a nice BDU jacket. Got it when i was maybe 10. It HAD some patches on it, but my little brother thought it would be a good idea to remove them when I was at Boy Scout camp. I will try to post some pictures later today (with the patches)

[easterneagle87]

Thrift store find today. Double 82nd , CIB, Badic jump wings with Combat Jump Star. Name and Army tapes removed. Most likely for Panama in ‘89.

[JimothyJibulusJeJird]

I got these at a garage sale a year ago. One I don't think was ever used, and the other had all but one (U.S. Army Tape) of the patches removed. However, there is some evidence of rank patches on the collar. There is also a spot where there used to be a unit patch on the left sleeve. The used one may have been used in Panama??? I can't tell.

[JimothyJibulusJeJird]

Sorry that the images are blurry, I did the best I could.

[mysteriousoozlefinch]

That civilian safety one is neat!

[ShibaLegend]

Forgot to post this one, 173rd and 5th BDU with army recruiter, I believe this is a early one.
