US pilots don retro ‘Saigon Cowboy’ hats during massive Asia wargame

Returning to a part of their Vietnam War lineage, the American 25th Fighter Squadron based in Osan Air Base, South Korea, went retro in this year’s Cobra Gold exercise, donning headwear that harkens back its deployment to Thailand when the squadron flew F-4 Phantoms in Southeast Asia...

Would love to know where I can purchase a "Saigon Cowboy", hat.  I am a member of the Vietnam Security Police Association which is comprised of Air Force Security Police who served in Vietnam and Thailand during the Vietnam War.  Many of us still have our original Hats but over the years they haven't held up very well....much like a lot of us.   Would be great to have a replica of our originals to wear to our annual reunions, which we have at different USAF Bases each year.

 

Thank You
