LIFE'S LOSERS NEVER LEARN FROM THE ERROR OF THEIR WAYS.
It is extremely hard to come up with the words to express the delight of seeing such an awesome helmet.
Again!! and Again!! Such a wonderful helmet!! Beautiful "pochers" and over all patina,plus the MOST impotant bit,the history too!!! WoW Wow Wow, Thank you for sharing this great item. Leon.
I do not collect SS anymore, but i felt my heart stood still while i read this amazing thread. I am VERY happy to se such an important piece of our history being taken care of. Look at that perfect Gem!
Absolute Fantastic!!!
I am so excited to see something such as this still survive even to this day. Glad it is within good hands. Frank was a driving force in commanding the destruction of the Czech villages such as Lidice and Ležáky in order to take revenge on the Czech population for Heydrich's death. No doubt an infamous part of history. I found a brief summary of his ss career, although I'm quite sure most are aware of it. Thank you so much for showing this beauty, not only for its condition but for its historical value as well.
SS-Brigadeführer: 1 November 1938
