The iconic "First Team" in its highly desirable early configuration! We are offering a genuine, full-color 1st Cavalry Division shoulder sleeve insignia from the Vietnam War era.

The iconic "Sword of Vietnam" from the battle for Saigon! Up for sale is a genuine, Vietnam War-era shoulder patch (Shoulder Sleeve Insignia) for the II Field Force, Vietnam (II FFV). This massive corps-level command oversaw US operations in the critical III Corps Tactical Zone surrounding Saigon. This is the tactical subdued version (OD/Black) featuring a classic flat "cut-edge" border. The lack of a merrowed edge and the unsealed reverse confirm it as a 100% authentic, US-made piece produced during the conflict (late 1960s). Mint, unissued 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.

This serves as definitive proof that merrowed edge patches were produced and issued during the late stages of the Vietnam War.
