The classic paratrooper arc! Up for sale is a genuine full-color black and gold AIRBORNE tab from the Cold War and Vietnam War era. This piece features traditional mid-century construction with a flat "Cut Edge" and the highly sought-after white bobbin "snowy back." This specific tab has fantastic "salty" character—the edges are noticeably frayed, a clear sign that it was honestly worn on a period combat uniform and later removed.

The sound of the military camp! Up for sale is a genuine US military brass field bugle. Stamped with the classic "U.S. REGULATION", this specific piece was sourced directly from the estate of a US Marine Corps (USMC) Vietnam War veteran. The instrument boasts a fantastic, untouched patina from years of real use and storage. Please note: The bugle is missing its mouthpiece, making it an ideal historical display piece or a restoration project for a collector.

A pristine time capsule for MACV-SOG and LRRP collectors! Up for sale is a genuine US Military VS-17/GVX Panel Marker (Aerial Liaison) from the Vietnam War era. What makes this piece extraordinary is that it is still factory-sealed in its original waterproof kraft paper wrapping, clearly stamped with a 1972 date. These high-visibility panels were crucial for marking LZs, calling in CAS, and preventing friendly fire in the jungle. An untouched piece of history ready for your display.

The classic badge of a combat-proven Infantryman! Up for sale is a genuine US Army Combat Infantryman Badge (CIB - 1st Award) in the traditional full-color metal and enamel finish. The reverse is stamped with the "V-21" hallmark, identifying it as a product of Vanguard Military Equipment Corp. Since the Institute of Heraldry introduced these alphanumeric codes in 1965, this badge perfectly dates to the Vietnam War era through the 1970s. It shows honest wear and a beautiful, authentic patina.

The legendary "Sky Soldiers"! Up for sale is a genuine, Vietnam War-era 2-piece shoulder patch for the 173rd Airborne Brigade.

A piece of aviation history with real field use! Up for sale is a genuine, Vietnam War-era Republic of Vietnam Air Force (VNAF - Khong Quan) patch. This is a beautiful factory-woven variant, known for its flat profile and incredibly fine, sharp details compared to standard embroidery. Featuring a winged dragon and the motto "TỔ QUỐC KHÔNG GIAN" (Fatherland and Space/Sky). This patch is used and was carefully removed from an original uniform, retaining its folded edges and an authentic "salty" patina. A great piece for ARVN and US advisor collectors.

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!

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. This specific piece is in pristine, unissued New Old Stock (NOS) condition—never washed, never sewn, with flawlessly sharp, dark text. The ultimate finishing touch for an authentic early-war jungle fatigue jacket.

Additionally, the Marine's name is boldly stenciled across the back. The size tag is missing, but fits like a Small to Medium-Short.
