Fighting 69

I got my first M1 helmet off of Facebook Marketplace. I made sure that it was legit by getting other opinions on it before buying. 

It came with some ERDL cover, and 80s chinstrap, which I intend to replace.

It came with a Liner, Cover, and Shell. How'd I do?

It has a nice color! Liner misses some parts and unfortunately: the chinstrap is post Vietnam. Those chinstraps with the buckle near the swivel came in the late 80‘s and saw use on Grenada.
