In the 1970s, this military issue model
was redesigned from the gray horn-rimmed style.
At the time, this same model was produced by major American brands
such as AO and Bausch & Lomb
according to strict U.S. government specifications
as a US Army issue model.
This is why many pairs can be found with
the brand name on the front not matching the temple markings.
This particular pair is a rare example with a Bausch & Lomb front
and American Optical temples.
