I've got a couple of questions. We cleaned out my grandparent's home this weekend and my grandfather gave me his pistol belt from Vietnam (Air Force). He did a year out of Phu Cat with an EC-47 squadron. At the time, 1969-70, he was a Lieutenant Colonel. Were officers issued sidearms, or were they mostly personal purchase? The holster has the wear markings from a revolver with about a 4" barrel, and in his records he qualified with a .38. I would like to know what the standard USAF sidearm model was--maybe a S&W 15? Thanks in advance.
