Hi Group,
I was wondering if anyone has a spare set or two of the Afrika Korps Helmet decals. I have provided a photo of what I am in need of. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again...Tom

I have never seen the palm tree decal in use on a helmet,I think that is a fantasy item.

If I remember right this has already been discussed in the helmet thread quite a few months back. I think the conclusion was it is like stated above a fantasy.
Pure fantasy...the sort of thing seen in bad 'B' movies in the 60's.
Hi Tom, I agree with all the forum members: save your money.
Cheers, Ade.

No official palm tree decal ever existed
The gates of hell were opened and we accepted the invitation to enter" 26/880 Lance Sgt, Edward Dyke. 26th Bn Northumberland Fusiliers , ( 3rd Tyneside Irish )
1st July 1916
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
An old fake that dates back to the late 60's/early 70's. A total fantasy as previously stated.

You can find a set of these on kelsmilitary.com. for $4.00. Kelley's Military has all sorts of repro items. Hope this helps. I'm certain you weren't asking for a "spare" set of real decals from these folks. rick
guys i had an afrika coloured helmet and i painted the crude palm tree and swastika as the soldiers did in the field on the helmet and it looked very good. Of course the paint rubs off in seconds
