Do you happen to have any photos of these grenade hanger vests in use before the cease fire?

I do not… the vests they used are pretty hard to find, so please excuse the inaccurate vest. I will look into it today however and see if I can get you another answer.

I have the other type of M1952 without the grenade loop (different stitching around the shoulders and collar. I've been able to find photos of that type near the ceasefire but not the grenade loop ones which puzzles me as some of the grenade loop examples are clearly labeled to months before the cease fire and at least by outward appearance seem more similar in appearance to earlier vests. I would have thought that the other type would have come later.
