Veterans Day Gift University Of Vietnam Class Of 69 70 Vietnam War Veteran Shirt

At a VFW post fish fry, this design gets a nod from across the room and a question about which unit you served with. Styled like a varsity tee, it reads “University of Viet Nam, Class of 69-70,” the alma mater no Vietnam War veteran applied to.

Crossed white rifles sit over a map of Vietnam, its northern half red with a yellow star and its southern stretch yellow with red stripes. Green bamboo-like foliage peeks out behind the yellow VIET NAM, while white collegiate block letters frame the top and bottom on solid black.

Wear it to a Veterans Day parade, a unit reunion or a Wednesday coffee at the American Legion hall. It also suits a grandkid or spouse shopping for the vet whose sense of humor about those years never quite retired.
