35th USAAD Posted December 23, 2019 Share #1 Posted December 23, 2019 Just got this from my brother. Bevo Vietnam made. Real (?) or what. I think the top scroll says Duty Honor Country and the bottom says Republic of Vietnam Marine Division. If anyone can confirm, It would be nice to know. Have a Great Christmas. Thanks for looking.

doyler Posted December 24, 2019 Share #5 Posted December 24, 2019 Agree...the thick base of loose thread on the reverse is common to the reproduction woven patches Heres a II Corps MF on ebay.

I cant think of the company that sold them out of their catalog. I think the ones you are thinking of were printed as opposed to woven. I have some examples somewhere. Lancer Militaria used to sell such patches. Gil BurketOmaha, NESpecializing in Fakes and Reproductionsof the Vietnam Warburkcats@hotmail.com "One is easily fooled by that which one loves."
