· Quote

Thought I would share some paper money acquired from a relative of mine who is no longer with us.  He was a Vietnam vet and I presume these notes are from his time in SE Asia.  I do not know much about them, other than that they are part of a long line of such issues from the US military for personnel overseas.  Apologies for the poor photography.  Perhaps someone here has more historical information regarding these.

A one dollar note



A five cent note



Another five cent
