Hello Crewman

I just finished reading Battle Diary by Charles C. Martin DCM, MM who was CSM of A Company, Queens Own Rifles 3rd CDN Inf. Div and in it he mentions something relating to M1 Helmets in tthe ETO. He writes about a section of Chaudaries (spelling) infantry wearing US helmets (perhaps they were field testing? ). This strikes me as quite odd as he said said they all had US helmets on>?? Anyone have any further info on the level of issue of M1's ETO as Crewman was seeking.
