example on the soldier
Original configuration, but unfortunately without the chinstrap. Usually this is Polish one for WZ 31 helmet. Some WZ 31 was also used by Estonian army, probably smal quantity of them was mixed with the Swedish/Polish/Estonian M 38/40 helmet.
A couple of other M 40 examples which was re-issued by Soviet army in the 1941 year in Estonian battlefields.
War time, used by Red Army soldiers
Here is a picture of this helmet in use in the Estonian army.

Very nice picture, the soldier is being worn M26 jacket ( similar to the soviet gimnasterka) with estonian insignia on the collar, probably spring of 1940 year?
Again a very nice and rare picture being worn a such a rare helmet. Where you got it?
