    I thought M42 was standard without decals, is it not the other way/

    ... also in the Wehrmacht-Luftwaffe ?

    I´ve been told, that the M42 usually shows a "single decal".

    BTW, I´m not collecting helmets and that´s the reason why, I´m asking ...

    Early M42's had single decal. Later one's no.

    Many Luftwaffe M42 helmets were refinshed. They started life as overall Luftwaffe blue with single decals. They were then recalled and the outer blue paint only stripped off and repainted Feld Grau and a new Lufwaffe decal added. These were issued to the Luftwaffe Feld Divisions. I have one in my collection.

    Cheers, Ade.
