    Cheers Buddy It took me a bit to realize the steel helmet is Polish made, but that's no problem as these where issued. The net is DDR made but the veil is most likely Polish. Yep ships in the night alright!!! I'm getting over a hokey 12hr shift I had to do for my work!!!!!!! Cheers again Mate
    Have a Para jacket inbound at the mo!
