Vietnam Lightweight Rucksack Early P64 Named USMC W/ P64 Welded Frame 1964 Dated: $500.00
The scarce and very early P64 Lightweight rucksack. Predecessor to the P62 Rucksack was replaced by the P65 and ultimately the most common P68 Lightweight Rucksack. These are pretty hard to find, and is relatively complete minus a single cargo strap and the welded frame cargo shelf. This example has some small cuts to one of the smaller external pockets as notated in the pictures, as well as one of the tie down straps on the side missing a buckle. The welded aluminum frame is in great shape, and while the ruck is missing the instruction sheet as common it does retain a crisp US stamp and the clear date of 1964.
I was able to find a pretty positive identification as I could not see another Yandell in service at the time from the Vietnam War memorial website. John Yandell was in country from June 68- July 69 with the USMC and unfortunately passed after struggling with Post Traumatic Stress for a few decades.
Excellent rare ruck with alot of history. If only it could tell it\'s story. Lest we forget
