ICCS Vietnam Canadian Badge
Hello All,
Pictured is a badge I recently added to my collection. It was worn on the "CF green" dress shirt, above the pocket, by members of the ICCS Canadian team in Vietnam in 1973. I have seen photos of the badge being worn, but can not remember where. Further info would be appreciatedl Thank you, Walt

ICCS Canadin Vietnam Badge
Hello Jack,
Thank you for your reply & comment. This may have been an unofficial badge manufactured "In Theatre". Looking forward to an opinion from guru Bill A! Walt

I have one on a leather fob which I think I might have got from Doug Townend years ago.
The person to ask would be Dick Malott since he served with the ICCS.

Hi Walt, attached is a link to my ICCS stuff. My badge is just like yours but they do repro it now. The US vets call these locally-made badges "beer-can" badges based on the thin gauge of the metal used.

Thank you Bill. This badge was part of an auction lot from one of MGen Lew McKenzie's recent sale, so it is authentic. I've always been intrigued with Canada's involvement with the Vietnam War and the ICCS. This badge was a "must have"! Still looking for a photo of the badge being worn. Cheers,
Walt
