    Default Helmet Identification

    Hello,

    Is there anyone able to tell me what kind of helmet this is. Looks like an early reissued WW1 pot but what about the NSDAP insignia? Police? Fire Department? early SS?

    The red color is wrong and the center of the white field are misplaced to top, that is the first signs the decal is incorrect, and that is one obvious fake
