Montana40 Posted August 10, 2015 Share #1 Posted August 10, 2015 A picker friend of mine brought me this helmet for I.D. and information. It appears to be a very early but post WWII flight helmet or tank, I have no idea. Any assistance would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phantomfixer Posted August 10, 2015 Share #5 Posted August 10, 2015 Looks like a 60s era US Army tanker helmet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patches Posted August 10, 2015 Share #6 Posted August 10, 2015 That's what is, a 1960s Tank Crewmen helmet, can't remember which pattern, the early or late, these two had different mic heads and mic booms, but it's missing at least two pieces from it from what we can see, the cover of the mic, and the padding/rubber ear cushions.

Darktide Posted August 10, 2015 Share #7 Posted August 10, 2015 I believe it's a T-56. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montana40 Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share #8 Posted August 10, 2015 Thanks for the help guys. Is appreciated. American T-56 Crewman Helmet Introduced in the 1950s the T-56 was the first helmet designated as the Combat Vehicle Crewman's (CVC) helmet rather than tank helmet. The helmet featured its own self-contained communications and microphone system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
