Hi all, a friend has this unknown uniform we are trying to ID, I thought the patch might be something Thai but I dont know, uniform is cut like a US VN era Jungle jacket. Thanks for any info.

Hi RAB 

these were around during the 80s, Many kiwi soldiers used to go up to Bangkok from Singapore for some “not much rest and lots of recreation” and learn about the culture ! 
A lot of us bought these U.S.style BDUs to use as field kit as New Zealand didn’t have lightweight camo until 1985. These were Thai Police I believe. We also got the Tiger Stripe, the Black fatigues and the olive green jungle fatigues.

Im afraid I don’t recognise the patch.

cheers

Reading the Thai, it is a patch for the Taksin military base in Chantaburi southeast of Bangkok.  I think it is a Royal Thai Marine patch as they are the Thai units that often have red patches.
