A collector's gem from the dawn of airmobile warfare! Up for sale is a genuine 11th Air Assault Division (Test) shoulder patch (SSI) complete with the rare, separate "AIR ASSAULT" tab. This experimental unit existed only briefly from 1963 to 1965 to pioneer and test the revolutionary helicopter assault concepts that would define the Vietnam War. Once proven, the division's assets were absorbed into the famed 1st Cavalry Division. Featuring a classic flat "Cut Edge," this two-piece set is in pristine, unissued condition. A rare and highly significant slice of US Army Aviation history!

The combat-ready jungle version! Up for sale is a genuine subdued (olive green and black) shoulder patch (SSI) for the 1st Aviation Brigade.

The patch is in flawless, unissued New Old Stock (NOS) condition. An absolute must-have authentic detail for your Vietnam War jungle fatigue build!

A true special operations legend! Up for sale is a genuine US Navy lace-up wet weather parka. Originally produced during WWII, these rugged rubberized canvas pullovers became legendary during the Vietnam War, heavily favored by US Navy SEALs, UDTs, and USMC Force Recon to fight off the monsoon rains and river wind. This specific piece is in used, "salty" condition and features a unique factory flaw or field repair: the left sleeve is constructed from a noticeably darker shade of canvas. Features the classic U.S.N. chest stencil. Size Small (but cuts very large).

The missing link in US tactical gear history! Up for sale is an extremely rare LINCLOE program nylon pouch designed for three 30-round M16 magazines. Introduced in 1971, it bridges the gap between M-1967 nylon gear and the ALICE system. What makes this pouch highly collectible is the unique internal design: individual retention flaps for each magazine, a feature dropped in later LC-1 pouches. This exact model is famously associated with the US Marines guarding the Saigon embassy in 1975. Unissued, New Old Stock (NOS) condition. Includes two metal ALICE clips.

An incredible find for Vietnam War collectors: An original ARVN (Army of the Republic of Vietnam) Rucksack in Unused / Unissued condition.

Condition Note: The pack is missing the side utility straps. The metal hardware shows oxidation/verdigris consistent with long-term storage.

Up for sale is a stunning, unissued military flight suit (coveralls) in the highly desirable ERDL Brown Dominant (Highland) camouflage pattern. Featuring the classic aviator cut with multiple zippered pockets, this suit is in pristine New Old Stock condition with vibrant colors. While the original manufacturer's tag is missing, it is an incredible find, especially since it fits a modern, taller build (approx. 180-185 cm / 5'11" - 6'1"). Perfect for MACV-SOG, pilot, or door gunner impressions.
