H Has anyone seen a helmet similarly painted like this for a WW1 veteran? Was it used as part of a memorial at his funeral???DSCN0317.JPG Steve, Last October, there was a very similar helmet being sold on eBay by a dealer from Indiana. I wonder if these were from a local VFW or American Legion hall? I tried to find photos of the eBay sale, but they have been removed already.
