3 nice M1 liners

Post by 1stDivVet Thu Aug 20, 2009 6:06 pm

Picked these up last week along with another early para liner that needs repaired and the latest OPFOR helmet. These came from a shop in Louisville, Ky. 1st up is a WW2 era Westinghouse liner used in the mid to late 50's by the 38th Recon. Bn. at Ft. Knox, Ky. [img] 3 nice M1 liners PICT0004-1

Last, a near mint 1964 dated paratrooper liner with the nape strap. This one also has a 101st Airborne eagle hand drawn on the front in blue pen as well as Sgt stripes and a 5. Don't know if a kid did it or a GI, but the artwork is nice. I have a nice unissued twill chincup for it too[img] 3 nice M1 liners PICT0011
