I was digging around in the closet and found this military shirt from 1969 while stationed in Viet Nam. It's a bit frayed around the collar and surely doesn't fit me anymore. The last time I wore it someone actually tried to buy it from me. He said he was a Military Collector and wanted it for his collection. I just couldn't let it go.

I thought you folks might get a kick out of it.

Our squadron was the "RAT PACK" and our insignia was a pregnat RAT!

WHO keeps a shirt from 1969!!!! LOL
