Thats what she looks like, a nice late war Q M42, too bad about the liner.
Weird inscription in the skirt.
-
yeah the inscription is a bit strange, someone may have tried to make a no decal look like a mail home helmet to sex it up a bit, Im thinking of trying to remove it but I don't want to damage the original paint

I would leave it as is, its part of the helmets history now whatever it may be. Honestly I was thinking perhaps it was given post war by the vet to his young nephew who admired the helmet as a kid. Romantic story I know but thats my story and I am sticking to it LOL.

Yeah I always like the more romantic story.....maybe Frankie's uncle was posted to Germany In the 60's/70's and he picked it up then
