Hey everyone, I've got a quick question. What year did the PFC (Army) rank get the rocker on the bottom? which would be correct for Vietnam '69?

Thanks!

They made the change in 1965.

I think it was 1968.

 

"The insignia consisting of a single chevron, which was previously authorized for private first class, was authorized for Privates E2. A new insignia was authorized for Private First Class, which consisted of one chevron above one arc per DA Message 868848, 28 May 1968."

It was not 1965... I went into the Army in 1964 and was prmoted twice (to E-3) before I got my Mosquito Wings in 1965.
