Details
After years of putting these uniforms together, we have finally decided to list them as their own item. This is the classic uniform for Lt. Col. Kilgore from Apocalypse Now. If you have ever felt the need to state your love for the smell of napalm in the morning, this is your chance!
SEE BELOW IN BOLD FOR DETAILS: The package includes reproduction 2nd pattern (poplin) jungle fatigue coat and pants (in the stills you can see side take up tabs and the button for the gas flap. This means he either has a 2nd model coat with epaulettes removed or a very rare transitional coat that never had the epaulettes. So either a 2nd or 3rd can be used for this impression). Package also includes a brass buckle trouser belt and the following subdued insignia: Pin-On Lt. Col with Cavalry Branch, Kilgore and US Army Name Tapes, Merrowed 1st Cavalry Division Patch, Merrowed Ranger Tab, Senior Army Aviator Badge, Combat Infantry Badge, US Parachute Qualification Badge, and Subdued Vietnamese Parachute Qualification Badge (OD Star vs Yellow Star).
As per originals, our Poplin Jungles are true in pant size and oversized on the coats to allow for a baggy fit. On the pants, all regular inseams are 33" and actual waist sizes are: S (31) M (35) L (39) XL (43). On the jungle coats, the actual chest measurements are: S (42) M (46) L (50) XL (54). These are unwashed so will have some minor shrinkage and are meant to be worn slightly loose for a proper fit.
Uniforms should be instock and shipping by May 1st 2025
A Cavalry Yellow Ascot may be added below for an additional $20.
All insignia is shipped loose. Photos showing insignia attached are for reference only. Cavalry Stetson, Aviator Sunglasses and Holster not included. Millerhats.com is a great source for Cav Stetsons.
