Mk2 N°2C Home Guard
Morning everyone,
I wanted to show you this untouched helmet, used but in excellent condition, belonged to a "Home Guard" member; it is a Mk2 N°2C painted in textured khaki green.
The shell is 1941 dated, but the maker mark is barely visible, for features could be JSS in my opinion, but I’m not sure.
The liner is a "Mk2 TTC 1940" size 7-1/2 with a Mk3 chin strap.
Interesting letters are painted under the back flap: "BI.HG", I think that HG = Home Guard, while BI =? … maybe the letters that identify a HG District or HG Units/Specialties ?
