      I have fallen into one of these so-called "trenches" while metal detecting in Poland. Although I never found any helmets, but I did find an MG42 barrel, but it is nothing compared to this, Amazing find

      Thank you for sharing!! Please, MORE PICS!!!

      This is amazing on so many levels! For example I remember a thread where we debated if the M18 cut-out helmet was every really used in the field(wasn't it still experimental at this point?). This would suggest that the M18 cut-out helmet did reach the battle front. Whadya think?

      Very very nice finds Harvest. What i also think is very nice is that you sell them so people can share this extraordinary find. Cool. But what was that about it all had a bitter end?
