"Nomex fire resistant suit introduced around 1968 to replace international orange and tan suits. Colors and materials were an advantage in Vietnam:--On left sleeve there was an area for pencils, pens and a small pocket for miscellaneous stuff like morphine or small escape equipment;--On the left hip was a pocket for a K-Bar (United States Marine Corps issued knife);--On the lower legs were pockets for maps and checklists." David Taylor [Photograph in this collection shows David Taylor with his CH53 wearing this suit and boots.] "Nomex fire resistant suit introduced around 1968 to replace international orange and tan suits.

Mike Carley standing in his underwear inside the hootch. Caption on photo: "Mike Carley screwing around in an Ugly Angel hootch. Despite his bizarre appearance in this photo, Mike took such great pride in his appearance that his nom de guerre was "PigPen." Mike was killed in February of 67 at Nui Dang, southeast of Quang Ngai. Beside him in the photo is Bob "Deak" Warner who flew Mike's body back to Ky Ha after the incident. Photo by Joel Vignere." Comment added by Dick Moser: "The guy on the right whose head is barely visible is, I think, Dick Jesse, who was our logistics officer. The skinny kid bending over in the background is me."
