Some Vietnam Era Headgear

I just picked up a cool grouping father (WW2) and son (Vietnam).  The item which initially caught my attention at the antique place was this camouflage beret - with Engineer branch symbol and name affixed to it.  The salty OG107 'floppy' hat - with porcupine quill - is part of the son's items from his service in Vietnam.
