Not saying I have an answer though..

Also, Captain Mitchell exposits about Ryan for the first time after the Titanium helmet's visor pulls back to reveal part of Ryan's face.
Maybe that helmet was used for this shot?

Still don't know how you can recognize the face of someone you last saw when they were seven, though.
