Redzaku, do you even stop to think about what you are saying?
Of course the paratroopers had different helmets, they jump out of airplanes. And the one you posted a link to is patterned after a post WWII paratrooper helmet. As in late Korean War or Vietnam Airborne/Air Cav style. If you don't actually know the answer why are you posting up? Recently you bitched out a guy for his impression, and surprise it turns out he was right and you were wrong.
Sorry for the rant
MX2001, the repro helmets off At The Front or What Price Glory work really well, I did one for myself. You can either get the decals off ebay or sometimes the sites above have them. Or you can just get someone to paint the Ranger diamond onto the helmet. I had someone local do mine and it turned out great. Real Rangers painted the logos on(usually) with stencils, hence the simple shapes. That's why I painted mine, but I have heard the decals are pretty good looking too.
