US PASGT helmet
Here I have an XS PASGT helmet, manufactured by Devils Lake Sioux Mfg. It has the contract stamp for 1983 in the rear but the mould in date of 85 in the crown. They produced 14,880 of these Extra Small helmets for the military which is a very small run compared to the fact that they made around 1 million of these in the 1980s in all of the other sizes.
The desert camo cover aka choc chip cover is an X-small/small and made by Crown Purse Inc. This is a rarer maker for this cover as Crown Purse Inc. only received two contracts to produce only the desert helmet cover in 1983. This cover is the second contract 11-MAY-83 and produced in total for both contracts 114,520.
Thanks for looking guys 👍🏻
