Title: AATTV owl badge
Post by: edz on November 08, 2018, 04:08:12 PM
Greetings and salutations esteemed members of the swag community ..
As there maybe quite a few Returned service personal or families of returned servicemen or others  that may have or collect memorabilia ..
My elder brother [ AATTV  Member ]  didnt see fit at the time to collect a badge that was being handed out to troops at the completion of training [ Night operations training ] by the AATTV team members .  He was heading out on operations  in the Mekong Delta Vietnam ..
Sooo I am trying to track one down to give as a gift to him . So if anyone has / knows of / willing to part with a genuine  one or repo, I would be appreciative of a call .. Long shot I know, but if you dont ask you dont receive
From what I can gather there were two versions of the badge .   
Thanks in advance .

Thanks guys, yeah Al is in the association groups, More hoping a collector might have  one  .. We were talking about things the other night and he mentioned the badge in a rare tiny snippet of conversation about  his time over there ..
So I'm trying to find one and surprise him ..
