This knife doesn't match the note. It is a post-1972 knife no doubt about it. I was in SF but not in MACVsog, but my twin brother was in sog, as 1-1s and 1-0 on RT Delaware, during his second tour in 1968. It will be easy to check out this trooper and his service... and I will say that his use of MACVsog jargon is correct. But the part where he avers he acquired this knife and carried it in 1969-70 is just not true.

It is possible that someone has substituted a different knife for the one that the note referenced. Or he has mixed up his Randalls. I'll check out the trooper and his service first. Regards to all... it bothers me these things are in Spain.
