Description

This is an original Korean War U.S. M-1 helmet liner. Painted atop the exterior's original olive drab factory finish is a set of original sergeant's rank insignias, while the interior is identified to an apparent "WALES, R. E., RA19470805". This helmet liner was manufactured in 1952 by the Micarta Division of Westinghouse Electric & Manufacturing Company of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It features blackened brass A-washers and an OD#7 (green) suspension. It comes complete with its original headband and a recently installed 1955-dated L. Marino, Inc. neckband.
