20th Century 1955 Dated Camo Mk II HSAT

[Mark K]

I thought I might share this rather interesting example of a 1955 dated camo painted British Mk II Helmet Steel Airborne Troops ( HSAT ) that I have had in my collection for some time...

It shows matching wear to the helmet body and liner that is indicative to a field used example with a chalked in 63 to the front..

Who can say when the camo was applied but IMO it has been on there for many years it has that been there done that look I like so much in my helmets...

The liner is in a size 6 7/8 and was produced by C.C.L (Charles Collett Ltd, London England ),
