Original Vietnam War USARV Patch | Early Subdued on Twill Variation

1 of 2

An early-war combat classic! Up for sale is a genuine, period-original subdued shoulder sleeve insignia (SSI) for USARV (United States Army, Vietnam). This specific patch is the highly collectible and rare early "Subdued on Twill" variation manufactured between 1965 and 1967, featuring an exposed olive drab cotton-twill fabric base rather than a fully embroidered background. It is in nice, field-used, uniform-removed condition with plenty of authentic "been-there" character. A foundational patch for any serious Vietnam War display!

Description

The mark of the command that sustained the Army in Vietnam.

USARV History: Established in 1965 and headquartered at the massive Long Binh Post, the United States Army, Vietnam (USARV) commanded all US Army logistical, administrative, and support units. It was the backbone that kept hundreds of thousands of GIs armed, fed, and moving.
Sought-After "On Twill" Construction: This is the earliest style of US-issued subdued patches sent to theatre. Instead of a fully stitched background, the olive drab color is the actual exposed base twill fabric. Only the central sword and borders are embroidered in black thread.
Insignia Symbology: The shield features an upright sword, representing the military might and constant combat readiness of the US Army in Southeast Asia.
Condition: Lightly used and uniform-removed. The reverse side shows original stitch remnants from being sewn onto a tropical jungle fatigue shirt. The embroidery is tight, and the colors are excellent.
