Vietnam
Dated LC1 Y Strap Suspenders
These
are all Vietnam dated.
Most
have visible dates but some do not.
These are 'Nam dated because the ones that have visible dates are
all dated '72 to '75 and those are packed in with ones that have dates that
have faded away. They also all look identical as to the fading and the color of
the nylon.
It
is believed that the Marines defending the US embassy in Saigon and other
soldiers in Vietnam plus the ones that were going to Panama where issued these,
as it was the new best thing during that time. (Hard to believe) LC1 was just coming
of age to see the next 40 years in our military.
They
are all good to used condition, best go first.
Good
luck and check out my other items!
