The Personnel Armor System for Ground Troops (PASGT) Helmet was the standard-issue combat helmet for U.S. military forces from the early 1980s through the mid-2000s. Constructed from layers of Kevlar®, this helmet offered superior ballistic protection compared to its predecessor, the M1 steel pot. The PASGT was widely used by the U.S. Army, Marine Corps, Navy, and Air Force security forces throughout major conflicts, including Operation Desert Storm, the Gulf War, and early years of the Global War on Terror.
This small-sized PASGT helmet is in excellent condition, with only minor scuffs on the outer shell. It retains its original liner and chinstrap, and it also includes the leather liner cover, a feature sometimes issued to improve comfort and durability.
