Lieutenant Colonel William "Bill" Kilgore's uniform set as worn in the film Apocalypse Now. In the famous Hollywood success movie Robert Duvall played the legendary character Lt. Colonel Bill Kilgore as commander of the 1st Battalion of the 9th Airborne Brigade. The helicopter attack on the beach accompanied by Wagner's Ritt der Wallküren is probably unforgettable and unique in film history. The helicopters, the music from the Doors, and surfing helped the movie to its success. Lomax Militaria has taken the trouble to reproduce exactly this uniform set. We were supported by our supplier from Thailand who flew to Vietnam to have the badges made "in country". Each badge is handmade and elaborately embroidered with the machine. As underlay for the embroideries an original US Army tent tarpaulin from that time was used.
