Dear customers, orders will temporarily be shipped once a week, approximately in the middle of the week. Thank you for your understanding.
Description
From the decks of a warship to shore duty.
-
The Shell: Front Seam, Swivel Bale. The "S" stamp confirms production by Schlueter, which produced far fewer helmets than McCord.
-
The Camo: The use of yellow/green primer or gas detection paint mixed with black is a hallmark of USN landing parties.
-
The Liner: Marked with the Firestone "F". The peeling white paint exposes the bright red layer underneath, telling the story of the sailor's changing roles.
