Item Description
Original item: Only One Available. The Việt Cộng, also known as the National Liberation Front, was a mass political organization in South Vietnam and Cambodia with its own army – the People's Liberation Armed Forces of South Vietnam (PLAF) – that fought against the United States and South Vietnamese governments during the Vietnam War, eventually emerging on the winning side. It had both guerrilla and regular army units, as well as a network of cadres who organized peasants in the territory it controlled. Many soldiers were recruited in South Vietnam, but others were attached to the People's Army of Vietnam (PAVN), the regular North Vietnamese army.
This is a wartime issued North Vietnamese Army belt with a steel buckle, in a design very reminiscent of the U.S. WWII Pistol Belt, with a plated steel snap for an ammo pouch. The canvas belt measures 22", when fully extended it will be a greater length, and has steel grommets, which show some minor staining and wear. The steel buckle is painted silver, which is still mostly present, with a few spots of paint loss and oxidation. The insert side of the buckle has the Communist five pointed star stamped to the center.
Overall condition is very good. Overall an exceptionally rare North Vietnamese Army Viet Cong belt that was brought home by a USGI.
