Hi James, great looking piece mate, the liner looks to a high quality design. And with the all the fantastic information supplied by the other members, it makes this lid all the more interesting/collectable to me.

The Col. has been busy aquiring new helmets while I was away........very nice looking lid James.

Sorry I've been absent, just been real busy over here lately, but I did actually pull the new addition off the shelf today, to photograph, it just never happened. I'll try my best to snap a few photos of the wz50, that I believe to be an Iraq used piece, and post tomorrow.

Best Regards,

Russ
