Re: Relic named M35 w. liner and chinstrap
Thanks guys! Pretty pleased with it myself as I had been looking for a good complete one for some time.... does anyone have any thoughts on the white band that's painted on it?Like, what it would have signified etc. ?
Tried checking for maker and lot# but it seems too far gone to have retained any of that info..

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

Nice helmet! Quick ending for this soldier. Some great looking shots of it too.

Re: Relic named M35 w. liner and chinstrap
A slight resurrection of this thread here; still curious to know if anyone has any suggestions as to what a painted white vertical stripe on the back of a german helmet would have signified... here's a better shot showing this stripe
Seller had it described as some form of "tactical" marking?
Also, I'm having recurring problems with fresh rust coming back over and over again... I'd use citric acid but I'm kind of worried about getting the liner wet, any suggestions as to how I should pacify the rust without doing any further harm to the dried out liner and strap?
