I just bought a named M16 helmet and wonder what the numbers "2/44" after the name represents. Appreciate any info.

My educated guess would be 2nd Kompanie, 44th Regiment?

Cheers, Ade.

There is a symbol right below his name. Looks like "AK" srcunched together. Would that be his initials or his regimental symbol?

His initials for sure I would say.

Cheers, Ade.

Would be nice to see the entire helmet if you have photos?

Nice lid! I love the massive airvents and the camo is an interesting pattern too.
