The Dutch liners got a OliveDrab3 color inside and the strap is not leather.
Then Dutch it is. though its a possibility that it just a combine mix of American and Dutch right?
That's bullshit? Dutch liners don't have a brown color inside. It's not a Dutch liner. Belgium I think or late American (1975) with a new sweatband.
Attachment 6952 look this is my Belgium liner the sweatband is 1970 and the liner 1950
I'm seeing now the M1 better its a replica or postwar.
Are you sure. I got a liner just like that and its from 42 for sure. Are you sure thats the right image
You're very much time wrong. An example my us dogtags.
though how do you know that your right? what if you are incorrect?
In a recent issue of Shotgun News they show a picture of two Dutch Police officers wearing surplus USGI helmets. The caption read " Two Dutch Police Officers wearing US M1 helmets retaining US insignia markings 1945 ".
Just thought the Shotgun News pic was interesting.
sounds pretty interesting. Would you be able to send or post a link of some sort if you could?Quote:

Ok I found a photo, but I don't think its the one I was thinking of.
This photo is from the April 1st 2014 Shotgun News, page 19.
I found this webpage and thought it might be helpful. IMHO, your helmet is a McCord. http://nuke.combat-helmets.com/World...8/Default.aspx
