The net on the first one is the type of cam nets we still had for most of the vehicles when I joined. We changed over soon after and I collected them up to my best effort and cut them into manageable sizes. Wish I still had them now. Guys would love to be able to get pieces for their display helmets. Even after washing they still had that smell we all remember from the tents and truck canvas...

Jim, I love the smell of canvas! Especially new canvas with the mildew guard applied.
