I think this one was posted earlier this week, and was acknowledged to be bad. I'll see if I can find it.

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
Sorry, i'm not actually sure if its meant to be heer or ss.. it just said Channel Island Camo but i wrongly assumed it was a Heer
actually I now know that this is meant to be a heer helmet from a German based on a coastal artillery battery in Jersey, Channel Islands
Any way to see better pictures,and close-ups.

I would definitely not write this one off before seeing more detailed close ups of the paint.
Not all camo are bad.
