    Any US PASGT straps do for the case. Portuguese army uses US made PASGT. As i know we don't make those localy and there are no differences between the helmets used by airborne and infantry troops.
    My own have US stampings. What stampings have yours?

    Best regards

    Hello,
    This para only has a small O in the crown for markings. My ground troop model has the same stamp, no other markings. They are not U.S. made. The para has a different chinstrap arrangement than US helmets. I found a cover but still need a sweatband and chinstrap.
