The picture I posted was labeled "Atlantikwall". Probably France.

This one of Chris's looks plausible. How near the coast was this found?

Here is another.

Here is a better version of the Atlantikwall picture that clearly shows the burlap covers under chickenwire. Judging from the obstacles on the beach, I am betting this is the French coast. Just click on the picture to blow it up.

+1 for French coast. Scott that is an awesome photo of the soldier carrying the P08 and wearing the white camo apron.

Well I am betting it is the real deal. Maybe even from the same unit as in the photo!

Chris, Can you please post more detailed pictures of your burlap/wire helmet?

That would be nice,but I am thinking the picture looks more like the Utah beach area.
