Why did you quote that? Whilst I agree that this is the most amazing display of gear I have seen so far, your quote was utterly pointless!

I was merely expressing my GENUINE amazement at the fantastic collection that Tom has so maybe could have been worded better but not pointless to me.
MODS,if my comment was indeed pointless i do apologise and by all means remove it

Re: Impression Guide: US Army Infantryman – Vietnam War
The German od tees are close enough, if you do a fleabay search for 'olive drab t shirt' and check the box for item description as well, there`s a few that come up including the US retailer. If you want the genuine US article you have to get them from the US unfortunately.

Re: Impression Guide: US Army Infantryman – Vietnam War
Yep,British Army ones are close but not 100%.
As Slick has said only place you can get OG T shirts is the US and from memory a pack of 3 including postage will set you back around £20.
