    I dont know really.
    I find the colors wrong. It must be repainted, if its real that will say. (please correct me if Im wrong).
    Im never been the collector of helmets, just other types of militarystuff, so this is not somthing I know stuff about.
    I know some helmetes shouldnt have double decale, but I dont know if its this model or an older/later.

    Thanks for your opinion on it.
    Many people here are very wise on these but I am not one of them.
    But at first I notice a very fresh decal that does not match the other and paint looks strange to me.
    I look forward to further input.

    Hello and welcome to the forum,i am sorry to say that your friends helmet is not an original SS. It is an original M35 that was originally a "pea green" as you can see by the paint on the inside that has been left alone.The decals are poor fakes(especially the party shield)the runic shield looks like the runes finish level with the breaks to the shield level on the left hand side and at least 2mm above on the right(wrong).The so called "cammo" is a very poor attempt,that has had artificial wear(note the horizontal sanding marks),this just would not happen naturally on an original. Sorry,i just see NOTHING to say this is a double decal SS CAMMO HELMET. Leon.

    The only hope you have is to accept the fact that you're already dead.
    The sooner you accept that, the sooner you'll be able to function as a soldier is supposed to function:
    without mercy, without compassion, without remorse. All war depends upon it.
