Fort Eustis NCO Club chits occupy a genuinely odd corner of American military scrip history — issued at the installation level rather than through the centralized Military Payment Certificate program that governed most post-Korea scrip. The NCO Club operated its own chit system independently, which is why these pieces carry no MPC series designation and sit entirely outside the standard Harvey and Schwan catalog framework.

Red paper stock was a common internal control measure for club chits, allowing staff to distinguish denominations quickly across a busy bar counter. Surviving examples are almost entirely undocumented in terms of surviving quantities.
