M1 helmet snipers veil..

[Garandy]

Are these true WW2 USMC issue? Hayes O. is sending me one, but Im not sure whether my early M1 helmet should have one of those for $35.00, it doesnt fit like a helmet cover, or a USMC camo helmet cover? Anyone have experience with the veil?

These are true WWII USMC issue. Grand dad carried his folded up inside his helmet liner on Okinawa. He used it for fly and mosquito protection when he came off of the line. They are pretty readily available at around $15 or $20 bucks at the gun shows.
