RonnieBigR800 Posted April 9, 2018 Share #1 Posted April 9, 2018 Hello Everyone! Recently I was able to pick this beautiful named MTO lid to a USAAF veteran. The helmet is marked With the name Ray Raoul Barrie, along the rayon webbing. The liner is an early St. Clair, First pattern Rayon liner, with painted green interior. Probably one of the hardest sets to find unmolested. I have photos of his obituary but they wouldn't fit. Notice the burn marks on the top front of the shell from probably field cooking.
