French helmets didn't exist in Finland before Freedom War.
Finland ordered them in 1919, 15.000 french helmets and painted them in green color. German horned helmets started arriving after 1922.
About liner. It's same as refurbished Sohlberg helmets, those unfinished helmets which were left at factory before 1918. They were later completed in 1920-22 period. These are light-green color, Russian paint is dark-green with canvas liner.
But after army chose German helmet and they started arrive, refubished Sohlbergs never see service by the army.
French helmet also saw service only 1919- early twenties period.
Interesting variant nonetheless.
