Yes, it would appear to read "Vietnam".

See the pic reposted as "Hardcore", 3 soldiers outside a low building. The soldier in front has some groin protecting body armor on.

Ahhh! Thanks for pointing that out- ;-)
I need to clean my glass eye I guess...
That is an interesting item though. Do you suppose it's bullet proof or more for flak? Looks like part of a flak vest that was maybe "adapted" with a cutting instument to cover the "jewels"- kind of like the "bullet proof Bibles" from WWII (or was it WWI?).

I was just wondering why it would say "Vietnam" in English. Are they leftovers from the 70's? or are we buying from Vietnam to give to the Afghanis? Nothing important, just idle speculation...

US SF, B-Team,Not to nitpik, but my experience tells me the above should probably read US SF B-Team (as opposed to US SF A- Team).

Thanks for including the photo of the Tower. It needs to be included with every article and tv program. Lest we forget.
Great, wonderful photos of our warriors.
