Among Dynalectron's functions during the Vietnam War was to work with Army navigational systems. The buckle shows a cartoonish tiger and reads BE A TIGER! with the Dynalectron "d" logo.

1-15/16" height and 3-5/16" width.

ITEM NOTES:

CONDITION:
8 (Excellent-): Buckle appears to have more wear than it actually does because of the sandcasting process, which lends a pebbly look to the item.
