Unused US Army P38 can opener.
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.

These pants are in beautiful field-used condition—the colors remain vibrant and striking. They feature a small, authentic field repair (hand-stitched darning) on the fabric, adding incredible character and history to the piece. Size Small Regular. A fantastic item for reenactors, collectors, or vintage streetwear.

A perfect, authentic detail to complete your "Nam" combat impression.
