Japanese helmet liner/star question

[RegP]

Hello all,

Please enlighten me if you will. I read or heard somewhere that the front of the Type 90 headliner was held firmly by 

the star tabs protruding through the liner band and bent over. Can't find any reference as to Yes, No, sometimes???  Please advise.  Thanks, Reg

That's correct Reg, the badge was also a fixing point for the liner. I've attached an image of a reproduction but the design is the same.
