Doing some artwork for myself, and I was wondering if someone has a photo of the Flight Helmets used by P-47 pilots in the ETO, something with the oxygen mask off to one side of the face.

These might be included in the first linked website, but some excellent pictures on this webpage of Gabreski, Zemke, and others in flight gear:

Note the P-47 missing half it's horizontal stab!
