Totally agree.

Hi all,

Hoping somebody could help me identify this helmet, specifically the (faded) marking on the front.

Marking on the inside reads AMC 1941 C756. I understand this is Austin Motor Co. helmet but does anyone recognise or seen anything similar to the image on the front? it appears to be a shamrock with a dog like (goofy etc.) character within.

any help at all is of course appreciated.

Here my WW2 lids
First:Mk2 made by Roc 1943 with wearers name
Second is a Homefront example for the Light rescue service
Third one is postwar refurbished by the Irish
and the last one is a ex british refurbished MK1 used by the Portugese in the 1930s
My other 4 WW2 brodies were only shells

Re post #745 from NIWM41....I’m sorry but I’ve never seen a Shamrock/Goofy combo....but I can’t wait for it to start being copied by our copying friends :-)

Royal Artillery Mk2 , not flashed but going by the service number.

That really is very similar, thanks for posting that up.
