I would be interested in picking up this WW2 M1 helmet. I have not ever seen a paint job like this before. Has anyone else? Are opinions that this was done during the war? The helmet and paint looks like it was applied during WW2 to my eyes. I did not do a lead test on the paint since I do not own it, yet. Could this have been a US Navy helmet for a powder magazine or bomb loader, maybe? The helmet is a front seam swivel bale with a WW2 era liner. Looks like the liner has been repainted for Korea, maybe???? I did not find anything researching the name on the helmet as I have not been successful. I would like to learn what the best way to do that is. Some members come up with very detailed info on names. Thoughts and opinions are greatly appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to look and reply.
