Several years ago I had the opportunity to meet a WW2 Nomandy vet.He was a Battalion Surgeon in the 508th PIR.He was a veteran of both Normandy and Holland,the Buldge and into Germany.He brought both of these home.

 

This transitional helmet was found by the veteran 7 days after D-Day on the Cherbourg Penninsula.

Fantastic examples Ron! There's something almost romantic about bring back items, you can just tell these helmets have 'been there'!

 

Thanks for posting,

 

Will
