kammo-man Posted September 16, 2010 Author Share #26 Posted September 16, 2010 Hi All . ET not only had TS on the kid ...but when you have the mountain scene with the chase ...dead cows ..some of the Military are wearing TS . Now .. The un-badged TS Willard shirt .........I have seen a lobby card and it clearly shows this shirt being worn and one can see the threads where the patches have been ripped of . Its the same as picture#1 here but sharper . I have the card ..but have not seen it your years ..hidden somewhere . I feel we are getting close though. owen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VMI88 Posted September 16, 2010 Share #28 Posted September 16, 2010 And fwiw, the pic from "Tour of Duty" is a Tigerstripe Products jacket. I seem to recall reading on a collector website that the tiger suits worn by the tunnel rat team in one episode were the real deal, supplied by a Hollywood prop house. I'd love to see the Willard suit or one of the prop suits from "The Green Berets" -- I hope it works out for you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aips Posted September 17, 2010 Share #31 Posted September 17, 2010 there most probley was a few sets used at the time probly orignal surplus as well not custom made they might of been tailored a bit but i dont think they would of made them especially for the film .as tiger stripe in the late 70s would of been plentyful unless its got his name written inside or a stamp you,ll probly not never know if it was used on the film or not as there was a lot of tiger stripe worn on the film by other cast. its the same sort of problem i have in the uk trying to sort out full metal jacket props Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MACSSOG Posted May 13, 2017 Share #37 Posted May 13, 2017 I know the Kilgore OG sold a few years back, as did Kurtz's OG. 15-20k a piece, I believe! Willard's OG are in Coppola's museum. One of the PBR crews shirts has been shown on this forum. I'd love to hear if Willard's tigers are about?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MACSSOG Posted May 14, 2017 Share #39 Posted May 14, 2017 I got Harvey Kettles Tiger suit from the movie. Got MINE. Interesting. Care to share photos, or are they posted here somewhere? Someone I know in the film industry (a sound recordist) claims to have a set of Willard's, though refuses to make them public. I think he stole them!
