PLEASE NOTE: We are BOTH IN THE OFFICE as of MONDAY 06/09,
BUT this is somewhat Temporary,
So we will be keeping the Yellow Notification up through EARLY JULY!!
As we will be doing 4 shows over the next 3 weekends, and I will be on then road with most of our Military Artifacts from 6/18 to as late as 7/04 so there could be delays in shipping!!
Update 06/09/25: WE ARE still EXPERIENCING SOME TECHNICAL ISSUES WITH non-PayPal CREDIT CARD PURCHASES!!
We Hope to FINALLY Have this Issue CORRECTED by July or August!!
If you would like to PAY for an Artifact with a CREDIT CARD, please email and I will get an invoice emailed to you ASAP!
We are HAPPY TO ACCEPT YOUR ORDERS during this time, and we will promptly SHIP MOST orders within ONE Business Day of Receipt of Payment!
And, as always, if you would like to fund your $100.00+ order through a Bank that offers ZELLE, ASK ABOUT our ZELLE DISCOUNT!!

ARTIFACT:
This is a scarce circa 1966 or 1967 MIKE (Mobile Strike Force Command) Force pocket patch. MIKE was a section of the United States Army Special Forces in which Americans and indigenous soldiers fought together. The patch is Vietnamese-made and shows a dagger and crossbow above three lightning bolts. This patch is in a larger-size variation without an arc. This patch came to us along with several other Special Forces patches and insignia (please see links at bottom of page for more information: all items sold separately). We unfortunately currently do not know the name or anything about the Special Forces soldier to whom these all once belonged.
