I went to boot camp in 1977 and was issued the Navy blue wool shirt, and thought What the F it looked so odd with the black pants and never wore it ( thankfully)  

HI, SERVED FROM 1967 - 1973 USN, TWO TOURS OF VIETNAM 1968 - 1970.          WAS PART OF THE BROWN WATER NAVY THAT OPERATED IN THE MEKONG   DELTA RIVERS. HOW ABOUT YOU?   GOD BLESS

Welcome and what branch were you in Sir?   Plus... I didnt notice the caps at all until someone said something. 🤣 Not an issue.

Asking for a friend. Why does this ribbon bar have two Victory Medal ribbons and 4 stars? And is it Navy or USMC?

I have a repro cartridge box that I'm trying to figure out. It measures just over 7" wide, by 1.5" deep. Two normal tins do NOT fit in it side by side. Thanks    

Also the Camp McCoy makes it older as its now Fort McCoy

It's a WWII jungle pouch that has been repacked for the Vietnam War, does the top flap have a stock number printed on it?

Thanks! Yeah, I got a few others that are a bit different. M16, M60, the M79 Grenade launcher.
