Falklands ''Turtle'' and Argentine Para Lids

[dragnet]

A couple of Helmets from my collection 1982 British Turtle and an Argentine Helmet, the flag was supposed to have been taken on the Island. I brought these down from my boxes thinking of selling them on my website but i must admit after seeing the photos these might just go back on my shelf, being a collector and dealer just doesnt work all the time All comments are welcome. Pete.
p.s. ive got some hard thinking to do.

Rob, i also doubt if it was on the island, try and find a Turtle that was , ive 8 Argie helmets that are vet bring backs but ive never seen a British one for sale that you can say 100% was there ,this is the closest ive come , super camo topping as seen in many pics and this one is dated 1982.
p.s . Out of the 8 this is the only para system i have......
