Another at the Malta at War Museum
Hi Martin
The helmets I found at Birgu market where just rusty shells,no paint on them at all,not worth buying
Hi Gents
Sorry it's been a while since we've had a chat, Yesterday was the anniversary of some riots here in Malta, in 1958.
They showed this old footage on tv, I don't know if any of you particularly care, lol , but I found it extremely interesting that the police force were still using rubble wall camo helmets left over from WW2! Check the video out below, they're shown at 14 seconds.
All the best
Joe
Very interesting , Joe. In this country the Police kept their WW2 helmets for years after the war.
BTW, thought it might be nice to post these on here. The photos come from e-bay a while back. The story was a few of these were found having been used by the Malta Home Guard.
Happy Christmas to me !
Mystery writing, and NO, it doesn't say made in Stansted !
You've joined the Malta stonewall camo club.
Any name/service number on the inside of the liner?
Great find.
