Thanks Ed. I am not sure of the exact age but do not think it is very new. Perhaps someone out there can tell us.

 

Best regards,

I have one or two of these,I believe that they are P.I made.The 9th MEB went to Nam in the 60's,so I'm thinking that this is the time frame for the manufacture of the piece.

Here is a link that I found that tells a little about the unit.

I used to have one,I always thought it was made in Japan around the Vietnam War.
