M1 helmet - no markings...
Guys i picked up a decent looking m1 in a capac liner. My eyes aren't the best anymore and cannot see the liner marking well. Is this a korean war era liner with a Vietnam era m1 pot or possibly 1970's into 1980's steel pot? I could find no markings inside the helmet whatsoever. Blackened anchor marked fittings and looks like a corked finish to me.
I plan on taking better photographs tomorrow

I will try for better photos tomorrow. Looks like it has capac stamped two ways and a 52 and 53

It was like that from the 1960s.

yes. You can find him often in a certain time frame. I don't know if it was made by the troops themselves or made in an arsenal.
