Copran Posted September 22, 2008 Share #554 Posted September 22, 2008 I have another suit made in Thai Large poplin pattern, cut is rather like mechanical coverall, zippers are TALON, it s probabaly the one made for hunting, but I wonder if it was used by Laotian or Cambodian airforce at the end of the war Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Copran Posted September 22, 2008 Share #558 Posted September 22, 2008 The tiny one made in Zig Zag pattern, size probabaly for12 years old child, but I got it from Captain MEZS who said it was from a Mountainard guy. Could some one check for me what did Captain Maris MEZS in vietnam for me ? I didn't ask him much when I bought the suit from him and I lost his email now.

kammo-man Posted September 22, 2008 Share #559 Posted September 22, 2008 S We are ALL sick of the names he made up to swindle VETRANS and collectors out of their TIGERSTRIPES. As you know Tigerpatterns was published so that HE could SELL his collection for the MOST money . Also lets not forget the section in his book the deals with dealing with the VETRANS wife when HE is at work around CHRISTMAS time . SAD but TRUE . A SHAME to the collecting brotherhood . owen.

Copran Posted September 22, 2008 Share #563 Posted September 22, 2008 Seriously, could someone check Capt MEZS (I think now Ret Col) service in Vietnam for me ? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kammo-man Posted September 22, 2008 Share #564 Posted September 22, 2008 Oh sorry, I meant the snapps or pop studs at the waist . I wanted to see if they were branded or non branded , chrome or dull metal, rusty or plastic covered . I have seen them all of the ways above . It will just be a manufactures variation and is cool for reference at a later date . owen . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
