Hello Andy, just stopping by to say hello. We were in a discussion together about helmet colors and now I see why you are interested! I see you collect helmets? If you have pictures of your collection could you share? I love helmets too, and have started a small collection of helmets I have used in the service.
Stay Safe and look forward to chatting with you.
