WW2 fixed bell with Capac liner.
Chris, this helmet has Air Force Staff Sergeant insignia. The helmet is obviously WWII, though. My guess is that it was used sometime between 1947 and the Korean War.

Re: ww2 usmc m1 helmet discussion
well you learn something new everyday. i didnt think they had any use for the m1 helmet in the airforce and i thought the closest thing they used to it was the flak helmet.
