Hi Jack,

Thanks for posting.

Hard to tell but could be. It's the right time period for sure. Cool that here wearing Sgt. stripes on his sleeves and not collar this late war.

Cheers,

Matt

Here is the eBay pictures. I don't feel like it is worth putting the pictures of the back, lower pocket flap, or size tag. If somebody wants I will put them here.

Noncommisioned Officers Candidates Course garduation dates for S. Bloxham class of 6-69 103rd company graduation 2-9-69

There were three different types of Infantry NCO Candidate Course classes at Fort Benning while the program was in effect. The majority of the candidates graduated from the 11 Bravo (Light Weapons Infantrymen) course. My father was one of those. In addition, there was an 11 Charlie course (Indirect Fire Infantryman) and 11 Foxtrot (Infantry Operations and Intelligence). Bloxham graduated from the 11 Foxtrot course which would go along with his service in a Recon unit.
