The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

Does anyone have personnel knowledge or know of a good reference site for vietnam era US army uniforms? Iam trying to recreate my granfather's jungle shirt. I want to make it as accurate i can when it comes to name tape placement and color and patch placement and color as well.

I know he did two tours the first in the 25th infantry and the second as an adviser for the Montanyards.

Unfortunately all pictures of him from that time are lost and ive been meaning to do this project ever since he passed a few years back.

For reference, a good place to go is www.vietnamgear.com


Just in case you were wondering, you can buy repro uniforms from www.mooremilitaria.com if your looking to reenact.
