| Ok here is a basic list of what you need to get. Remember
to ask us first before buying anything so you don't buy the wrong thing or
pay too much. Try to stay away from the dark green canvas web
material and go for a more khaki color. That way you can go early war and
late war.As far as clothing you can either use approved repro or original.

1. Helmet, M-1
(required) WW2
era helmets only. WW2 helmets should have a split in rim located in the
front (seam) and the helmet must be in the correct color. If you get a
helmet with a seam in the front it’s defiantly WW2 era.
Fixed bale helmets are preferred
over Swivel Bales, but swivel bales
are allowed. What is a fixed bale well, look at the steel loop on the
steel pot where the chin stap attaches if it welded and doesn’t move it
is “Fixed Bale”. Straps
must be khaki in color and sewn onto the bales. Liner
must be of WW2 vintage and have khaki colored HBT suspension and
leather chinstrap. Since it’s hard to obtain WW2 liners certain
exceptions can be made (some Korean War era liners are acceptable) speak
to some one in the unit first if this is the case.
