My relic Luftwaffe helmet
Hi guys,
Today I want to share my relic double decal Luftwaffe helmet with you.
Found this some 30 years ago on the battlegrounds around Arnhem.
You can't see the decals on these pictures but when I have better pics I will post them here.
Greetings, Marinus

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings
Now thats what you can safely call 'salty'!
Hi Marinus , welcome to the forum , that is one "battle damaged" helmet! Also it is fantastic that you picked it up from such an iconic battle ground. Good stuff! Leon.
What can I say ......... lubberly!!
" I'm putting off procrastination until next week "
Thanks for the reactions. I've added a pic of one of the vaguely vissible decals.
