    Japanese Helmet and Cover for Review

    Folks,

    Please see attached photos of a helmet and IJN cover that I was recently offered. The story goes that both were brought home by the seller's grandfather after WWII.

    The helmet appears to be a civil defense helmet, or at least is trying to be a civil defense helmet.

    I apologize for the photos, but they are what the seller provided.

    Thoughts and opinions are greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

          I'm no expert, but it looks like a CD helmet with a naval cover.

          Marked "Outside/Outer 777"
          外777
          Soto/gai -777

              Nice first pattern navy cover! If you get the group with civil defense helmet I'm looking to buy a chinstrap
