Kev in Deva Posted June 30, 2007 Posted June 30, 2007 Hallo GentsI spotted this online it is un-identified, but the ribbon bars could be US.I am thinking along the lines of an item made for wear for OPFOR = OPPOSITION FORCES in US War Games.Kevin in Deva.
Kev in Deva Posted June 30, 2007 Author Posted June 30, 2007 A couple more views.Any help with regards the ribbons appreciated.Kevin in Deva.
hunyadi Posted June 30, 2007 Posted June 30, 2007 Kevin - Dont know much about OPFOR uniforms in US war games - pretty much all I have hear of is the red vs blue arm bands. The ribbon bar is nothing like a US one. About the only thing I see that is US is the oak leaves of a Major. I would say 'theatre frankenstein' - but that is just my opinion
Bob Hunter Posted July 1, 2007 Posted July 1, 2007 The ribbon bar is imaginary. The uniform shirt is something that has evolved as an aggressor force uniform since the late fifties.
Kev in Deva Posted July 1, 2007 Author Posted July 1, 2007 Gentlemen, thanks for all your comments, I decided not to bid as the seller was insisting on 24 US dollars postage to Romania, which is way to high when the USPS web-page postal calculator gives a 1 Pound packet by Registered Post at just over 10 US Dollars.Looks like some seller's want to claw back some cash if the item sells at a very low price, in this case $9.99.Kevin in Deva.

The max would have been 37USD flat rate Global Priority. Registration would be an additional cost.
