The iconic "First Team" in its highly desirable early configuration! We are offering a genuine, full-color 1st Cavalry Division shoulder sleeve insignia from the Vietnam War era. This is the sought-after "Cut Edge" variant, featuring a flat, un-merrowed border, which firmly dates it to the early-to-mid Vietnam period before thick overlocked edges became standard. Lightly used but in fantastic condition with vibrant colors. A massive, historic patch and a must-have for any Vietnam War collector or reenactor!

A true jungle classic from the Central Highlands! Up for sale is a genuine subdued shoulder patch (SSI) for the 4th Infantry Division (the "Ivy Division") from the Vietnam War era. This is a highly sought-after early combat variant, featuring black embroidery on an Olive Drab twill fabric background with a flat "Cut Edge" border. The patch is in flawless, unissued New Old Stock (NOS) condition. An absolute must-have, period-correct detail for your early-war jungle fatigue uniform!

Genuine carrier for the XM28 "Grasshopper" riot control mask. Still sealed in the original 1969 government packaging. Rare NOS condition. Famous "Tunnel Rat" gear.

The legendary "Sky Soldiers"! Up for sale is a genuine, Vietnam War-era 2-piece shoulder patch for the 173rd Airborne Brigade. This is the tactical subdued version (OD/Black) featuring the classic winged-sword shield and a separate "AIRBORNE" tab. The period-correct flat "cut-edge" border, along with an unsealed reverse showing classic white bobbin threads, confirms it as a 100% authentic, US-made piece from the late 60s. Mint, unissued New Old Stock (NOS) condition.

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.

A classic Green Beret SSI paired with a massive rarity! The main arrowhead patch shows signs of honest field use, but the real star is the matching teal and yellow "AIRBORNE" tab. This tab is from a rare experimental/test production run intended to replace the standard black-and-gold tabs to create a fully "color-matched" look. Both pieces feature a classic unmerrowed Cut Edge and snowy back. An exceptional, conversation-starting set for any serious Special Forces or patch collector!

The airborne pride of US Advisors! Up for sale is a genuine, Vietnam War-era cloth parachute badge (Senior Jump Wings) of the Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN). Rather than a local Asian copy, this is a high-quality, US-manufactured patch. These were produced specifically for American personnel (US Advisors, MACV-SOG, Airborne units) who earned the qualification while serving in Vietnam and wore the badge on their US uniforms. It is in excellent, unissued New Old Stock (NOS) condition with a period-correct cut-edge.

The famed "Big Red One" from the Cold War and Vietnam era! Up for sale is a genuine US Army 1st Infantry Division shoulder sleeve insignia (SSI). This specific piece is a prime example of mid-century 1950s-1960s production. It features a traditional flat "Cut Edge" and the era-defining olive drab return thread on the reverse (known to collectors as a "Green Back"), easily distinguishing it from WWII issues. The patch is in perfect, unissued "mint" condition. An excellent addition to any Vietnam War or Cold War USAREUR collection!

A must-have tactical resource for Vietnam War historians and Special Operations enthusiasts. This 2012 reprint by Special Operations Press combines two legendary Green Beret manuals into one volume: the "Combat Recon Manual" and the famous "B-52 Tips of the Trade." Compiled by the highly classified Project DELTA (Detachment B-52), it reveals the gritty, hard-learned tactics of deep jungle reconnaissance. Paperback, English language.

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.

An extremely rare transitional piece from the early Vietnam War! Up for sale is a genuine "U.S. ARMY" branch tape in the tactical subdued (black) format. What makes this piece highly sought after is the backing material: the text is embroidered directly onto a strip of iconic HBT (Herringbone Twill) fabric. This combination of the dark embroidery (introduced in 1966) and the older, durable HBT canvas from the Korean War era makes it a classic transitional artifact. The tape is in perfect, unissued New Old Stock (NOS) condition.
