FOR REENACTMENT?
The TCU uniform was approved for use in the U.S. Army in 1963. Initially, it was used primarily by special forces, but with the growing involvement of American troops in Vietnam, it began to replace the standard OG-107 uniform. It quickly became the standard uniform for operational forces operating in the Southeast Asian and Pacific regions at that time.
