    Horrible fate of German helmets

    I find it quite reasonable to use a portion of the vast amount of helmets for something useful. There really was not much use for them after the Nazi state came down. BW and NVA used them for a while in the late 40's and 50's, and collectors hoarded a good amount for themselves as well.

      BW never used them - and neither the BW nor the NVA was existing in the late 40s.

        A more useful fate than watching fakers and "restoration" types put decals and camo paint on them.

            Could have sworn BGS had used them when they first started out.

              Yes, but you wrote BW - and BW is not BGS...
