Instantly gives any M1 helmet that gritty, "island hopping" jungle look.

  • Design: The top crown and inner retaining bands are made of solid canvas, while the skirt is made of fine mesh netting. This allowed the GI to protect his face and neck from insects while breaking up his recognizable human silhouette.

  • Camouflage: Printed in a variant of the classic "Frogskin" / jungle spot pattern, combining greens, browns, and blacks to blend into tropical foliage.

  • Usage: It slips over the M1 steel pot and ties securely under the chin using the attached canvas drawstrings.

  • Condition: Unissued / NOS. The mesh is fully intact without holes or dry rot. The colors remain vibrant.

Technical Specs:

  • Item: Mosquito Headnet / Camo Cover
