Had this for about 30+ years. Believe could have been used for honor guards or for ceremonial purpose. British or american?IMG_20260531_194810 (2).jpgIMG_20260531_194809.jpgIMG_20260531_194810 (1).jpg
 
Mike:

I suspect this could be American. Possibly also Canadian.

Canadian helmets will have the maker's mark stamped on the interior rim. One of the following:

CL/C --- Canadian MotorLamp Company -- Windsor,Ontario,- 1940 – 1943

AG/C --- Aluminium Goods Ltd -- Toronto, Ontario- 1942

GSW --- General Steel Wares -- Toronto,Ontario - 1940 – 1942
 
I believe it is an American Legion honor guard helmet. They used the helmets post war.i have seen them with and without American Legion insignia.
Best regards
John
