Raymond Criswell's early EOD for his OG-107s which were stripped when I found them. Luckily they dropped the pieces in various bins and it just took some patience to find it all.

Hello all,
another day of shooting photos and here are the results.
I did plan on taking inmages of at least 5 displays today, but i was so caught up in the second that time slipped by...so, first up we have an advisor era set of commercial "duck hunter" camo.
This type of camo can be encountered in many variations but this is probably my favourite out of the sets that i own.
For ease of reference this pattern and cut is normally referred to as RN 25334.
This particular set was produced by the "Camouflage manufacturing Co" of Jacksonville, Florida.
This can be deduced by the tag on the matching trousers (shown later).
During August 1960, the above company applied for a Registered Identification Number (RN) to the Federal Trade Commission of the United States, and was issued RN 25334. Garments made by the company in this pattern and cut from 1960 through to 1964 will all possess this RN number and it will be found on the tag sewn to the garment.
These garments are of the 2nd type produced by the company, i have a set of the 1st variant also.
Patrick.

Finally i have my full mannequin back with me.
Which means i now have the means to display a full ensemble.
A set of standard black leather US issue "DMS" boots completes the display.

The hat is quite interesting.
Although a close match in both tones and colour it isn't actually the same pattern...but is is very very close. I do own a patrol cap in RN 25334 but as i was shooting i could not find it for the life of me...

More headgear in a similar pattern.
This time in a "Spot/Block" style, which matches the camo well.
This example is S.Vietnamese made and typical of the headgear purchased and worn early on in the Advisory phase.
