Bob Hudson Posted November 7, 2021 Share #1 Posted November 7, 2021 This one has me baffled: it has a suspension the likes which I cannot find online. It has a cotton chinstrap and one nice and shiny rivet to hold the liner. "Co B 2nd Inf" and "Sgt. Engel" are scratched and written on the inside of the shell. Makes me wonder if some kid put these pieces together to play Army, and added their name and a made-up unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they made construction helmets in this style long after the military stopped using them, so that must be what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CavalryCombatant Posted November 7, 2021 Share #4 Posted November 7, 2021 I know I’ve seen that chinstrap somewhere, I think it’s from a civil defense helmet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
