No worries, I promised to see what I could find out on the police helmets.
They were used by many branches of the police, but most noticeably by the riot-police.
As seen in the photo from the museum.
As I wrote, the 1970s seems to be the very last decade they were used, as the 1980s saw the introduction of "kevlar" like helmets,
and other more efficient light blue uniforms. They looked a lot like light blue Danish M/58 uniforms, and in a non-flammable material.
I will, later today, post a 1990s M1 helmet, from "Beredskabstyrelsen" = DEMA (Danish Emergency Management Agency). The very last M1 helmets ever to be issued and used by any Danish government agency.
