    And a lovely example it is to Rene and one I need to add to my own collection still.
    IMO the date stamp appears to be a 59

    Cool

    I have one with the same month and year as yours! nice find.

    NAMIBIA: People's Liberation Army of Namibia training in Angola, circa 1983 is shown wearing EG helmets in the B&W photo.

    These would have been used in some African civil wars , bush wars

    Thanks reneblacky, my M56 came directly out of East Germany to my house in the US, the seller says they found it up in the attic of their relatives home.

    yes, yours probably came out of the same factory , same production lot as this one in my collection.
