    Looks like a British shell as the chin strap lugs do not have the clipped corners on them. Is the liner Canadian marked?

    Hello, not British everything is very Canadian, the helmet is CL/C on 1940, the liner just has to look at it one sees that it is Canadian the British liner is differing. And on the ribbon there is roll and of the soldier. E600105 CPL TREMBLAY W. number is for MD 5, No. 51 BASIC Training Centres. The BASIC training centres no.51 was situated to Chicoutimie Québec.
