Description: This listing is for an original, Vietnam War dated reversible US Army camouflage M1 helmet cover, with the "clouds" or Mitchell camo pattern on one side, and the USMC standard or "wine leaf" pattern on the opposite side. Both patterns are very clean and unfaded, showing only light signs of use. Additionally, the cover has a black ink stamp of the 5th Infantry Division diamond SSI on both sides, suggesting these were used by that unit at some point after the Vietnam War. I've never seen one before. Cover is 1974 dated and in great condition. Would make a fine addition to any collection of vintage US Army helmets, or to a dedicated 5th Infantry Division collection. Please, folks - don't inqurie about "buy it now" prices, free shipping, or better deals if the listing doesn't get any bids the first time around. Please check out my other Ebay listings for more interesting, rare and unusual military insignia, berets, uniforms and field kit. I have been collecting international militaria for well over thirty years, focusing primarily on camouflage combat uniforms, elite unit berets, and special forces/airborne/elite unit insignia, so you can bid with confidence. As founder/director of the International Camouflage Uniform Society (ICUS), long-time member of Chute & Dagger (airborne/special forces insignia society), and creator of Camopedia.org, the international camouflage pattern database, I am always pleased to hear from other collectors with similar interests who wish to share information, help with identification, arrange trades, etc. All items in my auctions are described accurately and honestly to the best of my knowledge and are believed to be genuine unless specifically stated otherwise. All items are sold as is, and all sales are final. Contact me if you have further questions, but please be polite and articulate if you want an answer. Thanks for looking and best of luck!I won't ship this item outside of the United States. PLEASE NOTE: If you have any issues at all with an item you purchase please CONTACT ME and I will make every effort to work it out to your satisfaction. Failing to take this step is a poor reflection on the customer and justification for refusal to do business with you again. Anyone leaving negative or neutral feedback will be permanently banned from buying from me in the future.
