Hard one here without more pictures. APH-6....or HGU-2P...man hard to tell as the O-2 fittings are not right. at least they look add on to me. The Tape Job looks period Viet Nam and original to the helmet. "S T" could easily be the units tail flash.

www.best-of-flightgear.dk is an AWESOME site for helmet references. Maybe some other guys will hop in, but it looks Viet Nam to me, and Navy.
