Vietnam War US Army 9th Infantry Division OG-107 Shirt

Original Vietnam War US Army 9th Infantry Division Master Sargent Type 3 OG-107 Fatigue Shirt. There has probably never been a United States Army Infantry Division that has undergone as many inactivations and reactivations as the “Old Reliables,” the 9th Infantry Division. Over the course of its 73-year existence, the Division was inactivated a total of five times, the last coming in 1991. The 9th Infantry Division Shoulder Sleeve Insignia, or unit patch, is colored red and blue and features a double quatrefoil, a heraldic mark indicative of the ninth son; red and blue are the colors used for an Infantry Division’s distinguishing flag. In the center is a white circle—the color that was used for the Division’s numbers on its World War II flag. According to U.S. Army Patches, Flashes, and Ovals: An Illustrated Encyclopedia of Cloth Unit Insignia nicknames such as “Flower Power” and “Psychedelic Cookie” were used to describe the insignia during the 1960s.
