Textbook Us M1941 field jacket in light worn condition. The field jacket is a rare large size 42R and would fit most if not all modern militaria mannequins. The field jacket still remains the original label. Very nice large sized example!

Korean war US M1C Rigger made paratrooper liner with 82nd Airborne decals in good condition. The helmet liner is named inside and made by Westinghouse. Hard to find and nice affordable replacement for a world war two US M1C liner!

Textbook USAAF helmet chincup in good condition. Though not issued with US M1C paratrooper helmets this is the best substitute to use when your helmet lacks a chincup as its similar as the one issued with the US M1C paratrooper helmets.

Rare, untouched US Navy M1 fixed bale helmet with period navy markings. The shell is a typical McCord produced example with factory sewn chinstraps. The helmet has period applied Navy markings BOS’N, indicating boatswain. The bo’s’n, bos’n, or bosun, also known as a deck boss, or a qualified member of the deck department, is the most senior rate of the deck department and is responsible for the components of a ship’s hull. The boatswain supervises the other members of the ship’s deck department, and typically is not a watchstander, except on vessels with small crews. Additional duties vary depending upon ship, crew, and circumstances. Rare original US Navy helmet with period markings in untouched condition!

To me this is one of the most prominent and typical US world war two issue GI helmet. The helmet has many interesting details for me which are typical to the GI’s serving in the ETO. The helmets shell has been blackened on the top which is a typical feature as most Soldiers would cook in their helmet shell on top of a fire. The interior also shows remnants of it having been used as a cooking vessel. The helmet is complete with its early Rayon tape Westinghouse liner which has been named numerous times and has numerous laundry numbers on it. This helmet is a textbook example of a GI helmet which is very hard to find. Maybe pricey but even for a textbook helmet as used with most GI’s, most of these suffered from repaints, reworks and have swivel bales. This is a textbook helmet which would be great on a Ardennes offensive display; the helmet itself was found in Luxemburg. Hard to upgrade combat piece!
