Thank you for showing these interesting helmets - can anyone say what the purpose of the white band was?

Nice bunch of Luft airfield fire brigade or crash crew helments getting darn hard to find these days.

Cricketchris AKA. Chris, Has one also but his computer is still down and I am unable to find his link.
Just spoke with him, and he should be back online in the next few days to add what I think will be a very short list of these from members.
But it will be great to see them all together on one thread!

I guess you were right Eric.
Not too many have them.
I am looking to buy another this year.
There is also only 3 guys on the forum that do collect civic helmets you, Jim and me.
I like them.

Great items Jim. I love these! These are also called Luftwaffe Fire Brigade helmets but Jim is correct in the term Crash crew.
