Excellent helmet, really like the subdued paint on this helmet.

Jesse really had some fun painting that helmet. Almost did not recognise the A.E.F. lettering. I wonder if he was ever an artist or sign-writer?
Typically there were one or two people in the Company that did the painting. Jesse probably rubbed the helmet with a rock to make the surface smooth and prepped for painting.
Well he must have traded quite a few cigarettes for that job as its highly detailed and time consuming.
The numbers next to "France", would they be dates of service? Maybe front line service?
