Not particularly special, but this is one that I picked up a few weeks ago. It's a late/post-war piece, but it's graffitied in several places, in good condition and untouched by the fact the cover is stuck to the shell

Bringing the thread back to the top with a new addition. WW2 era shell and KW liner with 1970 cover and Captains bar. It is named to a Pearlman and all components match each other.

We'll it's been more than 47 years now, so I guess the statute of limitations has expired. The helmet on the left is mine and the one on the right was my CO's. Wonder if he's still looking for it? LOL.

The MP liner is dated 1967

My helmet that is on post #17 was also, uh, borrowed.....when my ship was sold off to the South Korean Navy (ROKN)

 

.....I think we're cool by now
