Brian Keith Posted March 25, 2018 Share #1 Posted March 25, 2018 Here is a WW II surplus liner used in the 1950s by the Civil Defense. Note the reflective decal. I think RACES is some type of acronym. It spent a lot of years upside down in some dusty building. BKW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant G. Posted March 25, 2018 Share #2 Posted March 25, 2018 Cool find, Bryan! I picked up a CD helmet liner of my own this weekend. Most collectors will pass up on them, but I think they are great for recovering some original accessories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WW2JAKE Posted March 25, 2018 Share #3 Posted March 25, 2018 I believe RACES is Radio Amateur Civil Emergency Service which would explain the "Radio" in the insignia. Cool liner! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
