Thanks Battlegear for the informaton it is good to know that the helmet and the liner are right and that they were not a marriage of two different helmets.

the early shells with rivets were manufactured from 1956 - 1966 but after 1966 they would have relined them with the new style adjustable liners up unitil reunification in 1990

Thank you for the info.
