Hi to all,

 

I just want to share with you this WW1 CAMO helmet bought one year ago.

 

Its is in very good shape and has a very odd chnistrap cut in the lenght. Maybe to fit to the chin.

 

I've found a name on the rim and on the tag. Very hard to read. Baclyk, Bachyk or maybe Bachouk.

 

This helmet cames with a Brodie with a nice insignia of an ordnance detachment.

 

Have a great day

 

Dominique

This type of modification was done to make the helmet more stable. It’s fairly uncommon to see them fully intact, as it weakened the strap.
