Hi to you all :))   I have seen pictures of ROK soldiers wearing both poplin and hbt shirts in Vietnam. However, the hbt variant with shoulder loops was issued into the late 1980s, so I was wondering: Is there any way to determine, from when it exactly is (apart from the almost always faded stamping in the left bottom part of the shirt)?   Cheers, Jules   PS: I attached the stamp on a shirt in hopes of someone being able to maybe make out the manufacturing date :))  

Amazing things still being found. It would certainly be tempting to fully restore such a find but there is something to be said about leaving it as is.     Scott

Thanks for the photos.  Very neat!   I love the photo of Lt. Stehle in his Luftwaffe Sturmgeschutz uniform with Luftwaffe insignia.  How many collectors would think this combination was original if we saw it at a military show?     Never say never.    

That is a nice vintage beauty.  mikie

Pick this up recently. I assume that the lower button is original and the upper button is from a uniform pocket? 

Thanks for that info! 

Judging by the paint inside of the IJN helmet it may have been a gray shipboard helmet at one time and the two characters painted there are l to r 2,9
