Military Short Sleeve Shirt - Where to Find?

Does anyone know where I can find a military style short sleeve button up like the one the guy on the right is wearing in the picture attached? I've looked at a bunch of sites online and have had no luck whatsoever.

My best match so far was this shirt from Uniqlo , but the only problem is it's in the UK and they don't ship to the States. Other matches I've found were on Japanese websites and, again, they don't ship to the States. The only thing the U.S. stores seem to have are shirts covered with graphics.

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

I've bought a couple of military short sleeve shirts from H&M in the last couple months. One was linen and one was cotton, but I'm not sure if they're still there.

They're still there. I just picked up one about 2 weeks ago and still saw them in the store just the other day. I don't think they're going away any time soon.

Funny this should come up, after seeing Casino Royale again, I began to lust (again) for the "White linen shirt with epaulettes, regular collar with 2.75" collar point, short sleeve, no pocket, plain back, front placket, regular tailed" shirt that Craig wears in Nassau. I had been able to find it at Saks when I had previously lusted for it, but found it to be price prohibitive.

I got a few. They are too tight in the shoulders, and loose around the midsection.

Great shirt Augusto. Can you hook a brother up with a link and possibly measurements?
