Okay....it's not British....it's Canadian. It is called the Pate suspension and is unique to the RCAF.

It is dated 1954, it is the MS22001 oxy mask.

 

That's interesting Baze, the other data is telling me something different. First it is not an A-15A second and third is the specification number and contract being Material Command. for 1954 it does not have a MILSPEC and the contract is telling be it is late 1940's. That is just how I am interrupting it anyway.

There should be a date right on the side of the rubber mask. Sometimes an ink stamp, but usually a round dial with three sets of numbers. It looks like it is there in the one picture.

The Pate Suspension Assembly was used on Canadian helmets where the mask wasn't used all the time. You could actually pull the mask down and use a boom microphone. I have one inmy collection on a DH-41-1 (DH-411) flight helmet.
