Awesome Tabs!
It's really great to see collections like this, and the photos look good!
I really liked seeing the variations in the AnLoc Tabs. I wonder if there are also variations for BinhLong?
And, the Reconnaissance Qualitifications are great too! Not to mention the silks, and everything else!
On the topic of the English "RANGER" tabs, I am curious if these were worn by BDQ (Vietnamese) or were these for advisors / incountry made for American Rangers, etc?
I also have this one, shown here, slightly different from the ones in your album:

Impressive to say the least !
There is one Trinh Sat tab misspelt Chinh Sat. This is a phonetics mistake, a problem sometimes found in the Vietnamese language, even now.

The five BDQ pocket patches posted together in the same post are all machine made. I am not sure how many more variations of the colored wreath exist, but I believe there is at least another version with the wreath in pink/red, which I seem to recall seeing at one point. Each of these patches are also slightly different in diameter/size.

In reference to the above, the only Vietnamese that wore the American Ranger Tab were those who completed the course successfully at Ft. Benning.
The Vietnamese wore the Biet Dong Quan Tab, which were made in three color variations.
The in country made Ranger tabs were used by the Co Van.
