Rare WWII period USAAF Army Air Corps Bomber Bombardier M3 flak helmet & Liner

Rare WWII period USAAF M3 flak helmet. Manufactured in a similar pattern as the standard US M1 helmet but with the addition of ear protection covers.

These helmets were worn by bomber crew members. The helmet's exterior retains over 95% of its factory applied anti-magnetic paint.

Some rust storage wear and abrasions are present. The straps of the helmet are complete and factory applied. Made from a tan web material and intact.

The helmet's interior is complete and in good condition. Commonly missing as is in this example are the ear pads.
