A matching M1 helmet-liner, both white painted, 37th ID and Lt. decal application.

 

Shell: #M_30A

Manganese rim

Rear Seam

Liner: CAPAC

Early Bare A washers

Postwar use, no doubt. I have seen a similar liner. Anybody out there recognize this for use in a particular period? National Guard? Parade?

 

Happy New Year!

The black chinstrap clips on the helmet would date it to the 60's I believe. I know they were painted green during Korea but I don't remember when they were painted/treated black.

Interesting, I'm more of a WWII collector so I have never heard this.

 

Nice M1, thinking it might be Vietnam also? Still a nice lid!
