    A collector's gem from the early days of subdued insignia! Up for sale is a genuine "U.S. ARMY" branch tape from the early stages of the Vietnam War. Unlike the more common embroidered tapes, this is the highly sought-after printed version. This quick and cheap manufacturing method was used right after the Army authorized subdued insignia in 1966. Because the ink washed out and faded extremely quickly in the jungle, they were soon replaced.

The ultimate finishing touch for an authentic early-war jungle fatigue jacket.
