Persian Gulf Command Posted April 16, 2020 Share #1 Posted April 16, 2020 I have had this since 1978. I was 18 when it was given to me by a Viet Nam Vet. He told me it was good at keeping the bugs from biting his neck and getting into his hair. Its a camo field jacket with a hand sewn 1967 Mitchel Helmet cover on as a hood. Any comments would be appreciated. Photo 1&2 of 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Persian Gulf Command Posted April 17, 2020 Author Share #12 Posted April 17, 2020 Thanks guys. Apparently the bugs he was talking about were in Up-State New York not the Central Highlands. Oh well, its still a nice gift from a Veteran (and good guy) who was from my hometown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
