The faint remains of 147 painted on the front and back probably indicate the wearing of the helmet by a P Company candidate.

Very good 50's para helmet. As already said probably used for P company, these lids were used for many years.

I remember at 131 Para Sqn RE in the mid 80s we had 1944 and I think one 1942 dated helmet, still in use for those who were Para trained.
