There's usually several for sale on ebay at any given time.
Try your local Army Surpluss store.

The army navy store is good but I have good luck at yard sales and flea markets
You don't come across the Vietnam Leaf Pattern covers very much at surplus stores, etc very much anymore but there's usually quite a few on ebay for good prices. The later ERDL covers still show up once in a while.
AS much as ebay ticks me off at times, it works for what you want to find and is cost effective - You can often find a good cover for less than $20 in less than a minute and I've gone to countless estate sales and have never seen one.
These helmet covers were in use during the 1950's and 1960's, they are very thin. Can anyone I.D. this type of cover ? I have seen them on US Army and Korean helmets
