Nice helmet & net, strap is British. But there is a well known picture of an Canadian officer in Normandy I think, with this same chin strap. Why, who knows.
Strap is non magnetic so would have been fitted on a Mk2 No.1, although this is on an Mk2 No.2C.
I reckon that is why I had it in my head it was Canadian then.....
Thanks.
It came with a nice single decal Heer M42 I showed earlier tonight in the German section.
Cheers, Ade.

A nice helmet indeed Aaron is correct about the strap It has been associated with Canada because of Lt.-Col. John Meldram, Commanding Officer Winnipeg Rifles wore one on his Mk.III.

That's the pic! Thanks Mark.

Hi Ade, I hope Charles is paying you well, this could have ended up being another £20 and no reserve estimate! A very nice MKII with an unusual chinstrap. Leon.
He is
