South Korean HBT shirts used in Vietnam

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 :))
