Helmet, M1, Schlueter, Medic, Camouflaged, FIRESTONE Liner
Genuine WWII US Army M1 helmet, front seam and swivel loops, manufactured by Schlueter, shell number 320A. Original OD 7 canvas chinstrap with steel buckle and hook.
The outer surface, which has been adorned with three white discs bearing a red cross, features a theater-made camouflage scheme made up of green and ochre paint stains.

Great homogeneous set, in good overall condition.
The Century Div. arrived in the combat zone with the medics helmets prominently marked on all sides like the one worn by S/Sgt Roy G. Carlson, Pencer, Minn.
After contact with the enemy in which it was found that the brightly colored headgear gave away the positions of their units, it was changed overnight to the more practical markings on the helmet worn by T/5 James P. Murray, Quincy, Mass. La Salle area, France. 3 November, 1944.
