>>30771869
Forgot to add, I am doing this to honor his memory.

Also fucked up, putting on right shoulder to signify it is retired.

>>30771869
Pretty sure people won't think you're a vet from a unit that hasn't been around since the 70's. Even if they do tell them to fuck off and that it was your grandfathers.

>>30771869
Who cares, if anyone gives you shit jam the bones of there nose into their brain with the heel of your hand then cut off their right ear

>>30771917
That's what I was thinking. I just know there are some faggots out there who will do that kind of shit.

>You will never be a SOG Operator
>You will never fend off a fucking battalion sized assault on your own to save the rest of your 6 man recon squad, deep in enemy territory, while already being shot through the chest
>You will never get the Medal of Honor for said heroics
>You will never go on a shit ton of random ass adventures in Vietnam

True, but those are the guys who wear full out shit. If you're just some young dude/older man wearing a sick tiger stripe M65 jacket it shouldn't be an issue. Most people that would know anything anyway would be able to tell you're not trying to be a stolen valor nut. Also if it's legit your grandfather was SOG, any cool stories/pics?

>>30772112
No pics, but he did tell my father one story.
>"dad can you please tell me something about what you did while you were gone?"
>"alright son, this is the only thing I will ever tell you."

>in rice field behind enemy lines in Cambodia
>6 man recon team

>no one knows how we will be able to destroy any traces of his face/dental records
>grandad has a single M34 White Phosphorus

>got out of there

my dad never asked about Vietnam again.

Not familiar with the term 1-1, what's that

>>30772334
Well shit. Talk about problem solving on the fly.
>>30772382
Guess 1st BN 1st Marines but wtf I know fuck all

>>30772382
1-0 was squad leader, 1-1 was the second in command and also held the radio if I remember correctly.

>>30772334
