Can anyone identify this M4A2 type helmut? A steel cap with steel ear flaps and headphone set. Tank or B-17 waist gunner? Cheers Rob

I've got a reference for a more standard shaped helmet with the ear flap's. It is an air crew one,and was apparently sprayed with felt based paint to stop it icing at high altitudes. Possibly the fabric covering on this one is for a similar reason?:confused:
