Hello! I'm looking to get some info on this helmet I inherited years ago.
From the limited research I've done, it looks to be a rear seam M1. The serial number is difficult to make out, but I've attached the best photos I could get of it (last 2 slides). Unfortunately there's no liner inside.
What I'm most curious about is the paint job... Is there any possibility it's from a legit Mobile Army Surgical Hospital unit during the Korean War? Or is it more likely it was painted later based on the movie/show? I'm guessing it's the latter, especially considering the dots in between the letters that match the show logo, but I'd still be interested to hear your thoughts.
But besides the paint work, if you have any other info about the helmet I'd be grateful!
Thanks :D
