It's either a rare, expensive piece or a fake....
Are the bullion threads metal or cloth thread?
they are cloth
looks homemade or soldier front made
This is a repro in my oppinion appears to me a newly made patch that has been made in vietnam in the last 10 years
Thanks for your input guys! And gel65.... i'm not questioning your knowlegde here but for educational purpose what makes you believe it's a repro?

great thank you!
So I got an answer..... James told me that it COULD be real but it's probably a fancy repro.
Compair these two patches, this one is one of the recent made patches that are coming out of vietnam, the reason that the patch does not glow is because the vietnamese have been making berets, patches, and other items the same since the 1960s after the war hope this helps
