Very fun to collect.

Two-tone ERDL camouflage produced during late wartime period — in this case — it’s 1969. They just used any leftover fabric before transitioning to the brown-dominant one.
The USMC EGA stamps denote that this jacket was used later time/post-Vietnam War.

One response to “Two-Tone ERDL Camouflage w/ USMC EGA”
When I got to Parris Island in August of ‘79, we were issued a mixture of ERDLS and “transitionals”. There were platoons of recruits who had been there longer wearing sateens, scuttlebutt had it that we were some of the first platoons not issued the solid greens. I remember being fascinated with the camouflage utilities and the different cuts of the pockets. Slanted on the ERDL blouses and square on the transitionals. As well as the difference in brown vs green dominate ERDL.
