Auf den ersten Blick scheint bei diesem Vietnam Zippo etwas nicht zu stimmen: Weshalb sollte die U.S. Patrouillenboote (PBR.. Patrol Boat, River) in Vietnam einsetzen, wenn es zu diesem Zweck die "Brown Water Navy" gab?

Die Erklärung ist eigentlich ganz einfach: Die 458th Transportation Company war die einzige Einheit der U.S. Army, welche mit PBRs ausgerüstet war.

Wenn man nun ein wenig nach "Bob Felde Vietnam" googelt, wird man schnell fündig und erkennt schnell den Zusammenhang zwischen dem Vorbesitzer, den PBRs und der 458th Trans Co (PBR) ;-)
