no willy waving (unless you wanta get yours out so we can all have a laugh??) - just honestly wanta know why it just started to happen in the last year. This number is different than the earlier number as the earlier number only concerned British Shrimp Nets procured after March of 1944. This number, presumably, covers the whole war. Hence the 500,000 net difference

Scrim is also used in clothing, usually covering the face or head. This allows the wearer to see out, while preventing others from seeing in. This may also be combined with camouflage to completely hide a person, such as a sniper. The bobbinet/bobbinette is a type of scrim that has a hexagonal hole shape and comes in a variety of hole sizes. It is used for a number of lighting effects in the film and theatre industries. This size intended as a helmet net. Suitable for for Para Helmets, MKVI, MKVIA, MKVII, SFCT and Gen Tex. Single rectangular section of fabric 'foliage', similar to that used in the construction of issue cam' nets. Measuring approximately 58 x 48cm. As a Paratrooper I've always done this (since being told I could!) and on courses have had to justify why Airborne Soldiers do it and I've been told to take it of by some DS on some courses.

Shown here over MTP, but works equally well over plain or sprayed helmets and other camouflage patterns. Officially there was no “M44 Net”. What many reenactors and collectors call “M44 Net” is actually “Net, Helmet, with Band.”“Net, Helmet, with Band” was a late war U.S. Army-developed standard helmet net.(1) It was made from a woven camouflage net, included a foliage band tied on to the rear of the net , and was affixed with an instruction card explaining configurations in which the net could be worn. These nets seem to first appear in use by troops in the ETO during the late Fall of 1944 and become progressively more common until the end of the war in Europe.

Reynosa, Mark A. The M-1 Helmet: A History of the U.S. M-1 Helmet in World War II. Atglen, PA: Schiffer Pub., 1996, 78-79. About 17.4% of that number are American Camouflage Factory produced “Shrimp Nets” of which, based off of the information in the document, we can say with an extremely high degree of probability were all woven “Shrimp Nets”. That 17.4% is the bare minimum number of “Shrimp Nets” in theatre.It was originally planned that vast majority of camouflage items would be procured from the British.(4) If a light with a gobo is aimed at a scrim, the image will appear on the scrim, but also any objects behind the scrim will be lit by the pattern as well. [1] though no doubt some blokes most proberly do it for 'allyness', I always thought it was for camouflage - though certain DS at SCBC think otherwise.

Moreover, 42.5% of the total number of helmet nets in theater are described as “Shrimp Nets” provided by the British, however, that number may be inflated due to the fact British produced ¼ inch knotted nets may be included in the total.The second step is an analysis of the number of “Shrimp Nets” produced in the camouflage factories. To begin with, what is a “Shrimp Net”? According to FM 5-20H Camouflage Materials and Manufacturing Techniques dated July of 1944: Some of the items we sell are age restricted by law. These are identified as such within the item descriptions.
