Helmet M35

[reneblacky]

G'day All

I was reluctant to post this one due to it's condition but here it is my last surviving M35! I bought this one cheaply 11 years ago from the same guy I bought my Jeep from.
In the past I've had a few better ones SD, but idiot me traded them away!
Don't look at the chin strap, I roughly made a replacement
That's about all I have on the Kraut side of helmets that I haven't post here

Nice Helmet, definately nothing to be ashamed of!

Cheers mate, it always was a black sheep though, but for me it's a keeper. + it looks good as a captured helmet strapped to the GPW Jeep

Cheers Good Pwny I'm trying but The Wifey is the one who basically controls my possible inbound internet finds!!(good on her)


I must add that a good 80% of my started posts here are not internet sourced and are from a good friend trader/scout(we have a strange agreement as some of you may know), flea market and local second hand shop finds before I was internet savvy.

Nice SE reissue, the prototypical combat helmet for the bulk of the war, very representative piece if you ask me.
