Another 26th ID, this time 101st Field Artillery. A buddy who went to the SOS saw this helmet on a table, phone/emailed a pic and now it's here. Technology can be very handy.

Hi David

Good/bad was likely dependent on your area of interest. My buds also specialize in helmets and reported this year's event was outstanding - easily the best in years. Another helmet from the show should arrive early next week.

How much did this one cost you? I picked a 77th ID one up in June. No liner, 95%of the shells paint is gone, and parts of the insignia have chipped away, but it is what it is.
