Hi,
I’m more concerned by the "Headgear" forum, but those sheets could be interesting.
They come from the "OKL" about British warships and allied landingscraft.
Cheers,

I have two pictures from his complete uniform.
Do somebody know who’s the owner of this beautiful group?
Thanks in advance, George
I am really pleased to be able to add a Ukrainian KASKA-1M dated to 2013 as produced by Temp 3000 to my collection as part of a trade with a fellow collector in Italy..
This particular example is sporting a four point harness and IMO has been fitted with a mesh dome pad for additional comfort that I believe to be a non-issued item and did not come with the helmet as I have yet to see another example like it on this I stand to be corrected..
Take note it has the earlier first variation chinstrap/harness as the second variation was improved upon with the addition of a rotating buckle were the chinstrap harness webbing attaches to the side of the helmet body..
In and or around 2014 a new camouflage pattern was introduced these covers are primarily being used on the Ukrainian made helmets…
(This pattern is known to have been used as early as 2014 by the Ukrainian 79th Air-mobile Brigade from Mykolaiv Oblastengagement whom engaged Russian separatist in the Donbas region.
The camo pattern called "ВАРАН" ВСУ ("Varan" VSU), consists of two main components: a green + light/brown + brown + olive coloured base, and a 3-D looking grid that helps to further break the soldier’s silhouette from a distances… the information above came from a fellow collector on a different venue )
I have included an official Ukrainian document, dated 2015, which describes this type of cover construction but I believe it to be for the second variation cover..
I have no image of the cover that is coming with this particular helmet but will update the post with new images when it arrives in the post
