Simple answer: No Reason: There are a few things that can tell them apart. For instence, a ww2 helmet will be alot darker in colour, and have khaki (tan) straps. The liner will have a small hole in the front, and have khaki webbing inside. The webbing in the liner will have a hole in the middle. A Vietnam era helmet is lighter in colour, and has green straps. Its liner will have no hole at the front, and its webbing will be green. The webbing in these liners will have no hole in the middle.

Differences of World War 2 helmets and Vietnam War era helmets?

The M-1 Steel helmet has a stripe of metal rolled over the edge of the bottom of the helmet. The helmets made during WW2 had this edge strip meet at a seam in the FRONT of the helmet. All Vietname era helmets was made so the seam was in the rear. However, the problem is that this change in manufacture was begun during WW2 so some WW2-era helmets also have the seam in the rear.That is much as I know. There are some new books available that describe all the details of helmets and their Liners and the many variations."A History of the M-1 Helmet in World War II" by Mark A.
