dede6250 Posted November 15, 2017 Share #1 Posted November 15, 2017 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.

dede6250 Posted November 15, 2017 Author Share #4 Posted November 15, 2017 Hi, I do not remember too much because it's been a long time, but I think it was on the side of ST LO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWIIDADS Posted November 15, 2017 Share #5 Posted November 15, 2017 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! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
everforward Posted November 15, 2017 Share #6 Posted November 15, 2017 Nice relic example. Very similar to one in the Stonewall Brigade Museum...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dede6250 Posted November 16, 2017 Author Share #7 Posted November 16, 2017 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.
