Hey Guys and experts!

 

I recently acquired this vietnam era m1 helmet for a photographic project.

 

What interesting is the N.P insignia, i couldn't find any information about that particular insignia, 

I know there's M.P, S.P, Q.C,  A.P etc.

 

but whats NP ?

 

Is it a Press helmet? maybe N something Press, or is it a helmet thats supplied to other militias in asia?


Any light on this would be greatly appreciated!!!

 

THanks guys

South Vietnames National Police? This time written with English abbreviation????

I would second that, odd being in english as you point out. Unless the people making MP helmets had a bad day.
