    Default 2nd Army Group Royal Artillery MkII

    Hi all!

    I would like to share an MkII of the 2nd AGRA, that I have for some time in my collection. It has been repainted at least 2 times over the original green paint, once in tan and once more in green. It's bearing the artillery flash and the 2nd AGRA insignia, painted in hand. No makers mark is visible, it is covered under the rough paint. The 1940 dated liner is unfortunately pretty dry, but I think that the helmet really has some character!

    Regards, Giorgos
