the soldiers look like National Guardsmen I'm not sure what a National Guardsman is supposed to look like, but there were a lot of them who volunteered for Nam. If it is the uniform you are referring too, in 65 most American soldiers were still wearing the old HBT fatigues. In fact, I deployed in Jan67 and we didn't get Jungle fatigues until we arrived in country.

I'm refering to the age and weight of some of the soldiers in the photo. They don't look like they have been humping in the boonies to me.
