Re: M35 Heer DD Bullet
Unless you were there at the time the bullet hole was made in the lid it's impossible to say with any degree of certainty when it was made.
The degree of accuracy, right in the middle of the forehead is not, in my opinion, a good sign. Not all head shots were made in the spirit of Hollywood where they are all dead centre with pin point accuracy. The lack of sign of any organic material adhering to the liner is also open for debate.
I suggest it is a target practice shot, either for the sake of it or for the veteran who brought it home to boast about the superb marksman he was.
It can be speculated about until the ends of time but the only answer is - there is no answer.

That is exactly true Adrian! We probably shall never know. If only these helmets could speak he...

Re: M35 Heer DD Bullet
On the other hand... if it was a practice shot,... so on a helmet with no head inside,... shouldn't there be an exithole then on the backside of the helmet?

Re: M35 Heer DD Bullet
I would guess there would be an exit hole or some damage to the back even if there was a soft human head in there. It may have been set up on a sand bag or fence post?

Re: M35 Heer DD Bullet
Yes, that's offcourse another option indeed. And here goes our debate! :-))) Like we said, we shall never know.
I'll just let my own fantasy tell 'the' or 'a' story...
Thx.
