Lt Gen Lê Nguyên Kháng was the commander of the South Vietnamese Marines (RVMC), and much respected by both his own men and American troops who worked with him. As the commander of the service, he could choose to have any sort of uniform he wanted, and one of the pieces he had custom made was a one-off M65 style field jacket, made in a tiger stripe print. Today, it resides in the Museum of the Republic of Vietnam in California and they were kind enough to loan it to use to photograph for Owen Thornton’s book “Tiger Stripe: The Vietnam Camouflage Story”.

At Forgotten Weapons I think the most interesting guns out there are the most obscure ones. I try to search out experimental and prototype weapons and show you how they work, in addition to more conventional guns that you may not have heard of before. You’re much more likely to find a video on the Cei Rigotti or Webley-Fosbery here than an AR or Glock. So, do you want to learn about something new today? Then stick around!
