Original US Army Infantry Officer Collar Insignia | Sew-on Color | NOS

Skladem (1 pcs) Brand: G.I.

The perfect detail for an early Vietnam War uniform! Up for sale is a genuine US Army Infantry Officer sew-on collar branch insignia. This is the early full-color version (golden-yellow embroidery on OD green), heavily used on combat fatigues before the mandatory switch to subdued black insignia in 1966. Officers preferred these cloth sew-on versions over metal pin-on badges, as they didn't snag or cause painful pressure points under heavy field gear. It features a period-correct "cut-edge" and is in mint, unissued New Old Stock (NOS) condition.
