New in Box T56-6 Combat Vehicle Crewman’s Helmet

[Guy56]

Another special gem is my NIB Sierra Engineering-made T56-6 CVC helmet. I was able to see enough of the nape strap to read the details:

Manufactured by Sierra Engineering, size regular, contract number DSA-1-4567-64-E, and June 1964. This contract produced helmets that used the old MK-525/G headset-microphone kit and the newer MK-1039/G headset-microphone kit. Unfortunately I didn’t look for this, but I believe it was a MK-525/G. In the last photo you can see the plastic bag with the foam earphone adjusting disks. Oh, I forgot to mention, someone wrote “Army Helmet” in black marker on a large part of the box’s exterior. Fortunately, they didn’t deface the details.

It has a MK-525/G headset-microphone kit. It checked today.
