The sleeve shows a distinct "Ghost Patch" outline where insignia was removed. Fits like a US Small.

Made by Hallmark (Code G-23). Features snap button closure.
The essential reference guide for collectors of Vietnam War memorabilia, focusing specifically on the opposing forces. "Weapons and Field Gear of the North Vietnamese Army and Viet Cong" by Edward J. Emering is a high-quality hardcover book published by Schiffer Military History. It provides an in-depth look at the uniforms, equipment, and weapons used by Communist forces, making it a vital tool for authentication.

The crossguard is stamped "M7 FZR". Paired with a correct period M8A1 scabbard by TWB.
