pump 150 Posted October 21, 2018 Share #1 Posted October 21, 2018 I will start off the Japanese helmet section of this great new forum with an Army Type-90 that I have had in my collection for nearly 20 years with very slight wear. I am not an expert on Japanese helmets, but will relay what I have been able to research. If any other information can be given by those with knowledge, or corrections please feel free to comment.

pvon Posted October 25, 2018 Share #8 Posted October 25, 2018 Nice helmet! Just don't find them out of the woodwork like I used to! Can remember as a kid we would play army and run around the houses wearing bring backs from veteran! Those were the days! Neighbor had Japanese head gear.grenade belt and US stuff and in the garage had a wagon to hold everything! The vet won Silver Star and Bronze Star!He brought back much! I am almost 65 and recall the stuff! PVON Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
