A Holy Grail for military ration and Vietnam War gear collectors! We are offering a genuine, completely sealed "Food Packet, Long Range Patrol" (LRP), commonly known as a "Lurp" ration. This is the highly desirable late-type version featuring the dark brown plastic packaging, which served as the direct predecessor to the iconic MREs (Meals, Ready-to-Eat) introduced in the 1980s. This specific packet contains Menu No. 4: Beef with Rice, produced by Cadillac Products, Inc. A flawless display piece for your collection!

A massive relic of electronic warfare in Vietnam: The AN/QSG-126 Detection Transmitting Set, Acoustic. This 15kg air-delivered sensor was designed to be dropped onto the Ho Chi Minh Trail to detect Viet Cong movement as part of the secret Operation Igloo White (McNamara Line). This is an Inert / Training example dated 1968. It remains in excellent condition with the stabilizing fins still taped for storage.

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.

An iconic signaling device from the Vietnam War era! We are offering an original US SDU-5/E (Light, Marker, Distress) strobe light, contract dated 1972. Originally issued to downed aviators, this high-intensity strobe became a favorite tool among special operations forces (MACV-SOG, LRRPs, SEALs) for marking LZs and signaling extraction choppers through the dense jungle canopy. This strobe is in beautiful collector condition and comes complete with its original nylon carrying pouch and the extremely rare, original vintage BA-1574/U battery (dated 1971). Due to the obsolete battery, functionality is untested; sold as a historical display piece.

The combat-ready jungle version! Up for sale is a genuine subdued (olive green and black) shoulder patch (SSI) for the 1st Aviation Brigade. This is the highly desirable early "Cut Edge" variant, produced during the short transitional period in the mid-1960s when the Army switched from full-color insignia to low-visibility combat patches. The patch is in flawless, unissued New Old Stock (NOS) condition. An absolute must-have authentic detail for your Vietnam War jungle fatigue build!

The classic badge of a combat-proven Infantryman! Up for sale is a genuine US Army Combat Infantryman Badge (CIB - 1st Award) in the traditional full-color metal and enamel finish. The reverse is stamped with the "V-21" hallmark, identifying it as a product of Vanguard Military Equipment Corp. Since the Institute of Heraldry introduced these alphanumeric codes in 1965, this badge perfectly dates to the Vietnam War era through the 1970s. It shows honest wear and a beautiful, authentic patina.

Unused Waterproof Backpack Bag, Waterproof, Clothing. Date of manufacture 1967 and 1968.

Authentic gear from the early days of the Vietnam conflict! Up for sale is a genuine cotton canvas M-1956 entrenching tool carrier. This specific piece features a beautifully legible military contract stamp on the back dating it clearly to 1962. It is in quite nice, lightly used condition with a great vintage patina. Complete with the distinctive leather tabs for securely attaching a bayonet scabbard, and the original steel slide keeper clips for belt mounting. A perfect, period-correct piece for collectors and reenactors!

A highly elusive piece for the advanced M7 collector: The US M7 Bayonet manufactured by FZR (Fraser Manufacturing Corp.). Fraser is considered one of the rarest Vietnam-era contractors, having produced only an estimated 40,000 units across two contracts in 1971 and 1972. Finding one in this condition is exceptional. The crossguard is stamped "M7 FZR". Paired with a correct period M8A1 scabbard by TWB.
