I bought this vietnam top about a month ago from my local thrift store and was unsure of the woodland camo on it as it is from 1970 and it also has the ripstop and slanted pockets would like some help on it

Re: wierd vietnam top
It's the Vietnam ERDL. Used by trops in Vietnam. Looks good. Basically just the slant pocket Jungle jacket in camo.

Re: wierd vietnam top
Yep...Andrew nailed it. Vietnam era US ERDL. Looks to be the Brown-Dominant pattern from the pics. Nice find!!!

Re: wierd vietnam top
The pictures are so blurry that I could barely make out anything, but I agree with everyone it looks like a brown dominated ERDL. If your jacket doesn't have slanted pockets, then it's RDF.
Check this nice ERDL thread, it would be helpful for you.
