FJR6 Helmet Camouflage Patterns

[QUOTE=Persian Gulf;n11642522]Here's my contribution. It came out of Buffalo, NY in the late 70's. The liner has a name "Friske". It shows lots of field use and the back strap has been worn through to expose the cloth inside the leather. It's one of my favorite possessions![/QUOTE

Hi Herle

Any chance you can help with this name?Any idea what company he was in?

Here are a few photos of the interior. I always appreciated the way the metal liner rim has been pulled out of shape where the side straps are attached. Again showing hard use. Also, if any information about the Trooper "Friske" can be obtained I would greatly appreciate the knowledge.

Nice helmet, congrats! Likely to have been worn from Normandy to the end of the war.
