cagedfalcon Posted October 30, 2020 Share #1 Posted October 30, 2020 Just picked this one up today. I know a rivet & chinstrap aren't correct but for the price i could live with it.. Sweatband had an illegible red stamp & lot number is very hard to read. Did the best i could for closeups on paint.. Would like to hear opinions.

ispy Posted October 30, 2020 Share #2 Posted October 30, 2020 Fantastic Helmet and this one is so reminiscent of the German ones. I have several of these but none as close as this one to it's enemies helmets. Great find. Wayne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aef1917 Posted October 30, 2020 Share #5 Posted October 30, 2020 The helmet is British-made and it's not uncommon to see them with similar replacement rivets. I suspect that at least some of the helmets the UK sold to the US were refurbished battlefield salvage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
