A member I don't know on another forum, the pukey green one, contacted me out of the blue by pm today and asked for opinions about a tropenhelm. From his description it was as he suspected a Luftwaffe example but he only discovered this after he tried to add some KM shields to it and noticed the extra holes either side of the eagle shield, which is bad enough, but worst of all he mentioned that it had SS shields on it which he had removed and sold , admitting that he does not know if they were period applied or not. He never posted it for opinions on any forums as far as I know, just pulled them off and sold them. What a tosser IMHO.
