Hi,   Indeed, a beautiful scabbard holder for civilian use.

. Hi earlymb,   Thanks for the photos and explaining the differences between the different lamp guards.   A local friend recently bought a barn find Jeep that had a wooden box of Jeep parts taken off or maybe collected for rebuilding Jeeps,  nearly all the parts were F stamped parts. and he found a Tombstone pattern in the box which he sat on a wing for a comparison of the different styles of guards.  Note the hole in the wing to the side of the closest guard which was for the original wider spaced tombstone guard.      Norman D.

Gentlemen, that is all amazing information!  Thank you so much, I really appreciate it.  I also really appreciate the additional information to put in my tool kit for future helmets.  Carl, thank you very much for the roster rolls - going above and beyond.  It is a beautiful and amazing helmet and will hold a special place in my collection.  Thank you both again!

Does anyone currently have this book? I am interested in the information on page#340. Thank you in advance. 

When I attended IMPOC (Infantry Mortar Platoon Officer's Course) in 1984 we were still using the M2 Aiming Circle to "lay in" the guns.  When I attended the SFQC Weapons Course in '79, we were also taught, in addition to using the M2 Aiming Circle, how to use the M2 Engineer / Artillery Compass to do the same thing.  (The M2 Compass could also be used to boresight the guns if the design-purpose boresight wasn't available.)  I believe the M2 Compass was fielded in WWII.

Here ya go!    https://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/228094-late-wwii-westinghouse-paratrooper-liners/
