ERDL Brown Dominant Theater Made Jacket - M-R

The sound of the military camp! Up for sale is a genuine US military brass field bugle. Stamped with the classic "U.S. REGULATION", this specific piece was sourced directly from the estate of a US Marine Corps (USMC) Vietnam War veteran. The instrument boasts a fantastic, untouched patina from years of real use and storage. Please note: The bugle is missing its mouthpiece, making it an ideal historical display piece or a restoration project for a collector.

Authentic jungle gear with serious character! Up for sale is an original US Army M-1956 canvas cover for the standard 1-quart canteen. This is the highly desirable early variant featuring the all-cotton edge binding (later models switched to nylon to prevent fraying). The cover boasts an amazing "salty" combat patina, perfectly faded by the sun and field use, yet remains fully functional. The perfect addition to any early Vietnam War impression or collection.

Authentic M7 shoulder holster for the legendary Colt M1911. Black genuine leather, solid metal hardware (no plastic). Made by NORDAC MFG. CORP. Lightly used condition, featuring original "US" embossing. On a rarity scale from 1 to 10, this is a solid 4 – while not an elusive holy grail, finding a genuine, uncracked original over a cheap replica is getting hard!

The perfect detail for an early Vietnam War uniform! Up for sale is a genuine US Army Infantry Officer sew-on collar branch insignia. This is the early full-color version (golden-yellow embroidery on OD green), heavily used on combat fatigues before the mandatory switch to subdued black insignia in 1966. Officers preferred these cloth sew-on versions over metal pin-on badges, as they didn't snag or cause painful pressure points under heavy field gear. It features a period-correct "cut-edge" and is in mint, unissued New Old Stock (NOS) condition.

An authentic US Army Special Forces Shoulder Sleeve Insignia. This item is historically significant as it features a Merrowed Edge (thick border) but carries a confirmable Vietnam War date. The original box label identifies the contract as DSA 100-67-C-1365 (Fiscal Year 1967), manufactured by Shalhoub Bros. This serves as definitive proof that merrowed edge patches were produced and issued during the late stages of the Vietnam War.

A true special operations legend! Up for sale is a genuine US Navy lace-up wet weather parka. Originally produced during WWII, these rugged rubberized canvas pullovers became legendary during the Vietnam War, heavily favored by US Navy SEALs, UDTs, and USMC Force Recon to fight off the monsoon rains and river wind. This specific piece is in used, "salty" condition and features a unique factory flaw or field repair: the left sleeve is constructed from a noticeably darker shade of canvas. Features the classic U.S.N. chest stencil. Size Small (but cuts very large).

An incredibly scarce piece of Vietnam War history: An original ARVN (Army of the Republic of Vietnam) field shirt. Unlike US gear, surviving ARVN uniforms are very hard to find. This item was sourced directly from Vietnam, adding to its provenance. It is in "Salty" / combat-worn condition, featuring holes near the collar and a missing pocket button. The sleeve shows a distinct "Ghost Patch" outline where insignia was removed. Fits like a US Small.

Duck Hunter camouflage jumpsuit. Commercial production USA. Size Medium Tall (Long). Overalls have insulated sleeves.

A museum-grade time capsule for early Vietnam collectors! Up for sale is a genuine set of US Army M-1956 Load-Carrying Equipment suspenders (H-Harness) in size Regular. This is a highly desirable early 1st Pattern model with an incredibly crisp ink stamp dated September 18, 1959. The suspenders are in absolute New Old Stock (NOS) condition – unissued, unwashed, with stiff canvas, vibrant Olive Drab color, and flawless blackened metal hardware. Perfect for an early Military Advisor impression or a high-end display.

High-quality embroidered reproduction of the JCRC (Joint Casualty Resolution Center) shoulder patch. Unit established in 1973 (Nakhon Phanom, Thailand) to recover MIA/KIA personnel from the Vietnam War. Classic shield design with Indochina map. Sew-on type.

The legendary "Sky Soldiers"! Up for sale is a genuine, Vietnam War-era 2-piece shoulder patch for the 173rd Airborne Brigade. This is the tactical subdued version (OD/Black) featuring the classic winged-sword shield and a separate "AIRBORNE" tab. The period-correct flat "cut-edge" border, along with an unsealed reverse showing classic white bobbin threads, confirms it as a 100% authentic, US-made piece from the late 60s. Mint, unissued New Old Stock (NOS) condition.
