Ah. Which means we’ll probably see Uniforms from several eras.
That's what I read the other day - uniforms from all battles/actions/wars.
These guys will be playing the coolest music
Man, actual Vietnam vets still don't get the parade they deserve. Best they get is cosplay.
I have seen those vets the first time the saw the wall. Their souls were touched in a manner that no parade could duplicate. They don't need a parade. Bless them all.
Still, it will honor them.
I admire their commitment.
The whole Vietnam conflict was a waste of life.
The whole "domino theory" against communism was a lie.
Then Nixon gets in bed with the communist leader Mao ------ and fucks what's left of our gold backed dollar.
Shoulder patch indicates it's the 7th Calvary. Mel Gibson ( Col. Hal Moore) "We Were Soldiers" unit.
Pity they won't be carrying Vietnam-era rifles.
I trained with the m16 a1 in ait at Edgewood Maryland and this was 2007.they are still in use for training and parade
Kudos to them for still fitting their uniforms.
Military uniform fashion through the years! 👍❤️🇺🇸
The First Cav patches should be field patches, green and black, but cool nun the same.
