Russian tanker padded cotton helmet & gasmask [the tanker helmet was found inside an Iraqi tank in 2003]
The Soviet MM1 Gas Mask is unlike most other Soviet era gas masks. This mask used a harness allowing the wearer to use a radio headset on his exposed ears. These kits were issued to tank commanders and radio operators.
