I have recently decided that I should get around to learning more about the various manufacturers of helmets, in particular Heer decals, a topic that has always confused me. I decided to use germanhelmetvault, in particular, this page
here, to learn about the various types. The issue, however, is that no matter how much I study these various varieties...they all look identical to me. I have also searched these forums to try and find a guide but couldn't find one.
I decided to focus on the big four, Huber Jordan u. Koerner, Pocher, ET, and Quist. The only one I can successfully identify out of the the four is the Quist "big foot" one as it is the only one where all 3 claws of the eagle overlap the top of the swastika.
The other 3, however, especially the supposed "thin wing" Huber Jordan u. Koerner decal and the Pocher decal - look identical. I don't see the wings being any "thinner" shorter, or different in any way.
First is the Ju.K, second is the Pocher...I just can't tell at all.
Pocher:
I have tried drawing lines on the images to work out the differences, but to me, they both like identical- same goes for the ET decal...I feel at a loss here, perhaps there is something I am missing that is obvious, so any help would be much appreciated, many thanks.
