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.

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.

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.
