Hello and a quesiton

Postby camHue » Thu Apr 28, 2016 6:37 pm

Hi my name is Cam,and I just recently joined the group.

Now I have a question. Does anyone know what year when the Marines in Vietnam begin to start using "pin-on" collar stripe insignia's; instead of having their ranks sewn to their Jungle Fatigues?

Thanks

Ahoy, Welcome Aboard!

Wow, good question. Now I'm gonna be looking at jar-head uniforms, for the next two hours, that up until now, I had no interest in! LOL

* My guess, maybe 67?

Well that was fun!
I looked at HUNDREDS of photos last night.
My determination is that nobody really wore that stuff.
I would say less than one percent of the pics I looked at, people had any kind of I.D. tabs at all!
But duh, in the field, your gonna know everybody in your group anyway. And if You can't tell who is an NCO/CO in the field/combat, you've got bigger problems.
