Boxed Vietnam War Era Armor First Lieutenant Dress Uniform Bullion Shoulder Straps by Gemsco

The shoulder straps are in unused condition and they are within their original package, which contains the attachment brackets to be sewn to the uniform shoulders for wear of the straps. The interior packaging provides a patent number for Gemsco’s attachment system, with that patent having been issued in 1958, indicating that the shoulder straps date to the Vietnam War era of the late 1950’s into  the 1960’s.
