SergeantMajorGray Posted May 21, 2016 Author Share #101 Posted May 21, 2016 Has anyone established what the yellow painted M1 helmets on the USS North Carolina represented? I've read several theories, but so far I haven't seen a mention of a specific position on the ship.It possible the curator might know but I doubt it's a certain location more likely just the color that was on hand.
