River Patrol Posted December 31, 2014 Share #1 Posted December 31, 2014 UITG was the predecessor of FANK. After 5th Group left Vietnam, about 500 Green Berets stayed in SVN to train Cambodians to be used for interdiction against North Vietnamese forces still flowing down the Ho Chi Minh Trail which cut through a vast majority of Cambodia. This is just a small portion of this grouping, but it's the main thrust. I'm posting this because I haven't seen in the archives any UITG uniform groupings posted yet. UITG and SMAG are two of the most difficult SF uniforms to find (by my experience). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrei Posted January 5, 2015 Share #6 Posted January 5, 2015 Very nice! I am pretty sure that I missed on eBay a similar jungle jacket with a subdued LLDB pocket patch named to the same major. The auction was for the jacket, a cambodian flag and a beer stein. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

River Patrol Posted January 6, 2015 Author Share #9 Posted January 6, 2015 It's probably this set. It's the only UITG uniform group I've ever seen for sale.....it came off eBay maybe 10 years ago. The cover is '63 dated and was part of the grouping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
