jhanse19 Posted May 28, 2015 Share #553 Posted May 28, 2015 Thank you for all the info! I've done some research with the info y'all provided me and it looks to an Irish army eastern command 2nd division insignia during WW2 (I am still not sure what the bar means but I will keep looking) thanks again for the help -Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhanse19 Posted May 28, 2015 Share #554 Posted May 28, 2015 Update: I have received the helmet shell and the only markings I have found on it are large letters PN that look to be painted over on the outside of the shell, I could not find any other numbers or maker marks, if anyone has anymore info on it or why it doesn't have any other marks it would be much appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pepck Posted May 29, 2015 Share #556 Posted May 29, 2015 Hi All, thought you might appreciate a picture of this helmet, it is WWI 301st tank helmet in painted camo, I also have the dog tags (father and son-WWI and WWII) and some other items (not pictured) that came out of the estate with it. I was trying to sort out which items were the fathers and which the sons,(that's how I ended up on this site, just figure I'd go right to the people that know these things) but have decided that I will put them all on ebay together tonight plus their American legion items and any papers that are related so that everything stays together in one lot. Thanks to everyone who helped me identify what was what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bellasilva Posted August 28, 2015 Share #573 Posted August 28, 2015 Thought I'd throw my humble example in the mix here, amidst so many amazing ones..my one and only WW1 painted helmet, 78th Division. The rest of the paint seems to have been removed with a wire brush/tool at some point but the division insignia is still there with the texture intact. Kinda love this old beat up thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
