A fantastic collector's piece from the late Vietnam War era: US Navy Inflatable Life Preserver, specification MIL-L-21047 (SHIPS). The stencil clearly dates the manufacture to APRIL 1973.

A highly desirable Technical Manual (TM 9-1005-249-14) dated August 1966. This manual is a treasure trove for early Vietnam War collectors. It covers the maintenance and repair of the M16 and XM16E1 rifles, but its primary value lies in the inclusion of the XM148 40mm Grenade Launcher. The XM148 was an experimental, failure-prone predecessor to the M203, used briefly by US Special Forces. Original documentation for the XM148 is extremely scarce.
A distinct piece of Vietnam War era cutlery history: The Garcia Survival Knife. Manufactured in Brazil, this knife was produced as a lighter, more accessible successor to the Finnish Hackman Survival Knife, filling the void left by the scarcity of the Randall Model 18. It features a 3/16" stainless steel blade and a hollow, waterproof handle designed to store survival essentials like matches, hooks, or pills. Clearly marked with the Garcia logo and "BRAZIL". Comes with the original leather sheath.
A prime example of the US Army "Rucksack, Tropical", the definitive pack of the Vietnam War. Dated 1968 (DSA 100-68-C-2782). Unlike the later ALICE pack, this features the distinctive spring-steel "X-Frame" to keep the load off the soldier's back in humid conditions. The nylon is in excellent condition with vibrant color. Includes two original utility lash straps. Note: One metal eyelet is missing from a side attachment tab.
A pristine example of the most desirable private-purchase headgear in US Army history: The Morry Luxenberg "Green Beret". Sourced directly from the estate of Special Forces soldier "Norton" (service spanning Vietnam to the 1990s). Luxenberg berets, often Made in England, were prized by operators for their superior wool quality and "shaved" appearance. This item is Unissued/New Old Stock, retaining the rare plastic shield over the diamond logo with the original price sticker still attached. Size 7 1/8.

The sleeve shows a distinct "Ghost Patch" outline where insignia was removed. Fits like a US Small.
