Hello.
I know, it's not in extraordinary condition, but all good, and coming out of Normandy. I was a policeman for a few years, and I was lucky to get out some good parts. I have another one of the 90th, but the badge is almost erased.

My Father in law went into St Lo with the 29th ID. He was with the 82nd Engineer Combat Battalion. They were under constant German 88mm fire. That town was leveled!

Hi, glad you like it. I do not know if in the United States it's like ours in France, but on all sales we find helmets with badges. So when we have a good one, we keep it. I have another one of the 90th coming out of the farm, I'll put a picture of it, but the painted badge is almost erased. thanks to wwIIDAD'S for this part of history, the guys have indeed endured well for the fights on ST LO.
