The list of gear was approved by various members of RECON teams from the war which i have been in contact with . STABOs where used often by them as well as M56 gear , the only difference between Marines M61 belts and Army M56 belts is on the attachment points for the M61 single magazine pouch , tiger stripes where also used by RECON teams until ERDL camo was adopted , there was also a mix of camo and OG uniforms used. Sea Wave was the first type of TS camo developed by the South Vietnamese Marines in the 50s this was later copied by the ARVN wich produced many variations of the pattern , all of wich where used by the RECON teams.
Si vis pacem, para bellum .
Le diable marche avec nous
