Dear Gents
Yesterday i was visting a local friend of mine who has 3 helmets in his collections. All 3 were given to him by the family of a resistance fighter and were local pick ups after the battle. All 3 were in an untouched condition.
One was a single decal M40 lw helmet. The other 2 are british helmets. One of them appears to me like a helmet from an armoured unit. It has a two tone camouflage pattern. Brownish and dark green. It has a rectangle unit flash with two colours. Yellow and green like the sketch below. The other one is a normal tommy helmet with another unit flash in dark red with 2 blue verticle stripes. It could be that it also had a blue stripe horizontal on top.
If somebody can help me identify these units it would be great
thanks in advance
Regards Erwin
