For those of you who have thoughts that I might be a hypocrite about collecting enlisted helmets....... they would be correct...... but look at the mark! It didn't cost much and there are no hard feelings here.

I love this helmet! I can always take that chinstrap off of the beater that I cannot get the Uberzug off of. An interesting piece of trivia is that Frank Buchholz's grandfather in law was a volunteer in the JR137. I have a copy of his picture! An unnamed person told Randy I was pissed off about this helmet! Amazing.

Based on collections you'd almost think the the armies of Europe were made of only of officers! Nice to see some EM helmets out there!
