Paul was nice enough to send me some additional photos and has allowed me to add thn to his thread.
A nice lid by all accounts mate. That bullet scrape is an interesting touch too, I bet he had a nervous smoke shortly after that little encounter.
That'll increase your pucker factor...unless the next one hit him somewhere else in which case there probably wasn't much time for a smoke! This one has a great mix of white and gray. Paul was lucky to find this one.
Bumping this cuz the new photos deserve a bump.
Nice helmet Paul. It's not a relic is 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
