Then it must be British. Did Canadians ever use British nets in Europe? Of course I am not implying that this net is original to the helmet, but I would like to know if the one-tone British net is still consistent with a D-Day Canadian impression.

I know British troops used Canadian nets, can't see why British made nets were not used by Canadians.
1944 dated liner. Complete with bird mess.
Has a different string tying it on, and some of the holes. But seems to have been done a long time ago.
Just picked this one up from e-bay. Only the 2nd one I've ever owned. Quite a rare variant IMO.
Well it's been a long wait, but the unicorn has arrived. Never thought this day would come...
Congratulations, stunning net.
Any pictures of the inside, what type of string does it tie up with.
Aaron, I've sent you some photos .
Meantime.
Very nice!!
Hooks on the helmet is very similar to british MKII type. This helmet is a first production, it is possible tat the hooks are a british made? Can you compare the misure whit british MKII hooks? (Sorry for divagation from the theme)
Thanks!
Here are my latest nets - one is a dark brown (British?) net and the other a two-tone Canadian one.
You will tell me if I am wrong, but I do think the Canadian net at least is a repro.
