Nice display. Visor will be a better choice because the helmet is very small to his head. I have the same mannequin and it's head is a bit of a problem as it has a big extension on the rear part and demands a larger size of headgear.
Looking for the photo albums of Leutnant Emil Freitag, 3. / G.R. 377
Thanks Don! I am just waiting for it to come in the mail. I am trying to think of something to do with it kinda museum diaroma style. Any suggestions?

Here is mine. Same mannequin, same "problem". The helmet is a 64 size with liner size 56 and it doesn't fit either.

i dont have any i am trying to get one or make one out of 6 big thick branchs about 4-5 inches thick each
5 feet high x .5 feet wide x 2 feet length
military uniform on my hand made mannequins
military pants and gear in shadow boxs
i wish i had a mannequins
but it is hard to get one if you are special needs
ssi limits your money
does this one count?
Here is my mannequin, not really a mannequin but a project i made in woods class. The uniform displayed is my great uncles ike, he served from May of '41-'45.
I have only one mannequin at the moment. It is more of a tailors dummy, and the trousers look a little silly attached to the rest of the uniform, but it needs to be there in order to display the boots properly with gaiters / anklets.
Disregard the nation insignia on the upper left arm, I only attached in there in order to have a representation on two different "situations" one on each arm. One arm being at home, the other serving outside the country.
National insignia, and flag, were only worn when stationed on the "wrong side of the border"
Danish soldier, infantry (Falsterske Fodregiment - Falsterske Regiment of Foot (5. Regiment)) about 1955-1960.
The regiment existed from 1747 - 1976.
The blue colour underneath the regimental collar badge, denotes 3. battalion. Therefore, the soldier served in 5. regiment, 3 battalion.
Everything is original to the uniform, except the "DANMARK" and flag on the left arm, I added them myself as I previously wrote.
I will one day make a more detailed post on the forum, regarding equipment, uniform etc. This is just for show
Hello guys

Lars
