tdogchristy90 Posted December 9, 2019 Share #1 Posted December 9, 2019 I was recently watching a ww1 drama that included a fur Mohawk on a ww1 helmet. Now I don't usually get into the "stitch Nazi" debate and the show itself revolved around the British. But from a "what was worn" perspective, I thought it'd be interesting to bring up. Obviously we've all seen painted helmets and such. But seeing this in this tv series I found curious. I did do a quick google search and came up with the black and white photo that shows something similar on someone helmet as well as a snapshot from the tv show. Either way, it intrigued me and I thought it might be of interest. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aef1917 Posted December 9, 2019 Share #3 Posted December 9, 2019 I've seen that photograph discussed elsewhere and the consensus seemed to be that it was a burlap cover flapping in the wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
