Good evening all,
I have recently purchased what I think is a Mk2 HSRAC helmet. It has a BMB liner marked 1945, 11 and a V. The helmet itself seems to be in good condition as is finished in a green textured paint, and covered in scrim (I think this is a later addition to the helmet). It has a quick release elasticated chin strap but unfortunately I can’t find a date stamp.
Painted on the right side of the helmet is a brighter green/blue shield, but no numbers etc. Inside the helmet is what I think could be a stock number, which is CN-B415-99-973-6900. Lastly inside the helmet is a faded broad arrow and 3 numbers which are difficult to read but might say 462.
I wonder if anybody here knows if the stock number means it’s Canadian, and what the unit insignia is? I’m struggling to find anything so hopefully someone much more knowledgable than me can assist!
Thanks all,
Jubba
