In the 1970s, this military issue model
was redesigned from the gray horn-rimmed style.
At the time, the 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 pieces have brand names
that do not necessarily match between the front and temple markings.
This particular piece is a rare one where both the frontand temples are made by
USS.
