Original U.S. WWII Korean War Named M1 Paratrooper Helmet with Westinghouse Liner MG 42 Bolt & Barrel Assembly though we cannot tell ifOriginal Item: Only One Available. This is a very nice early example of a genuine WWII Swivel Bale M1 Helmet with a rather rare M1 Paratrooper liner by Westinghouse. The helmet was used during WWII and reused during the Korean War and is likely named to 1st Lieutenant Daryl Robert Schwichtenberg, who served with the U. S. Army Airborne during the Korean War. The helmet shell has a partially visible heat stamp 96, and has a rear seam and swivel bales.
