1st Armoured Regiment - Vietnam period cloth patch
1st Armoured Regiment - Vietnam period unofficial cloth patch.
These were worn mostly on flight suits which the tank crews wore at night. This practice by RAAC APC and Tank crews of wearing flight suits at night continued to about the early 1990s. Reproductions of this patch can be currently be found on ebay. Mick
