Hi everyone, I wanted to share my first WWII Japanese Helmet. Its in worn shape but as long as its original that's fine by me. It appears to have either sand / mildew behind the liner flaps and I don't believe I see any markings. The helmet has two names painted on the rim, the blue name is thought to be "Matsushita". Thank you for looking and I look forward to your comments!

Thank you Lukas, but this is dirt definitely from Mount Suribachi!!! I don't care much where the dirt is from, as long as its not mold or mildew. That is my main concern. Thanks again for your comment!

Its beautiful out today so I took her outside for some pictures in direct sunlight. It looks like there is a X near the painted names, could just be a scratch.
