Datrus-Special "Stalingrad" Helmet Cover!
This amazing helmet cover just arrived from my friend Lars in Moscow.
As many of you have seen in the thread he made on these, he found Soviet "Amoeba Camouflage Fabric" and he and his lovely wife hand-made these using authentic WM feldgrau thread, too!
Amazing quality and craftsmanship!
Overall, I am quite pleased with this helmet cover... it really is superb.
The best part is that it brought the helmet that was damaged at our recycling facility back to life!
THANK YOU SO MUCH, LARS!

I remember when you got that helmet, is that an SS decal or a scrubbed off police decal?

I only just noticed the side it is on, are reissue beaded lids common Doug? SD role maybe?

Hi Doug,
The person who helped me take the black biker paint off of the helmet insisted it was an SS decal. I posted it here for review, but we were never able to determine what it really is.
