at least the mini gp and a leather name tag

greetings would you sell it best braxton

In my platoon if you needed a field jacket then Supply would issue you one. And, even in the non-mountainous areas of Vietnam (I was in III Corps) it got cold at night, shivering cold. Especially during monsoon season when you’re always wet, just a slight drop in temperature could be hypothermia time. For most of the grunts in my platoon, however, that were ‘on the move’ on a many ‘klicks’ operation, we’d just use the poncho liner to try to stay warm. So, for me anyway, “pack light, freeze at night” was how I rolled.   Meanwhile, back in the basecamp, if it got chilly then the ol’ field jacket, a poncho liner, or a tour jacket made out of a poncho liner could be used. Personally I never bothered with a field jacket, in the field or in the basecamp. Instead I just used the poncho liner.

The tab is part of the SSI and does indicate whether or not an individual soldier is airborne qualified. Airborne units generally have a percentage of their personnel airborne qualified, not everybody.

Charlie,  Thank you very much for your response. That's the ballpark I was thinking myself, certainly appreciate the feedback.

Thanks guys, and thanks for posting this. Here is the video about the helmet    

do you know what regiment this was?

It doesn't look like the mounting points for the single or duel towlines for the CG-4As.

These 2 patches seem to be from the late 1970s. What do you think?
