I recently purchased a fixed bail, front seam M-1 painted light blue. On the front of the helmet letters are stenciled: H-P-D Is anyone on the forum familiar with this particular designation? Thanks in advance...Ed

Agree with the others comments. I've never seen that shade of blue paint on a USN or USCG helmet of any time period. A long shot is it might some type of UN or Peacekeeping detachment but my best guess is police use.
