    CombatUsed…

    A fantastic and heavily used M1 helmet from the battle of the philippines. The M1 helmet has been hand camouflaged with a brown and sand Camo, you can see the heavy brush strokes.

    This type of hand Camo is commonly seen being used in the PTO by the Marines.
    To boot the liner is a Westinghouse Camouflage liner meant for the USMC but also made it to some Army troops as seen here.

    The vet who used this helmet and liner has penciled his name in on the set.

    A true combat veteran of a set that’s seen actual use and combat duty.
