I don't recall if this has been discussed previously, so I'll put the question out there and see what happens.
Does anyone have information about when the Soviet M40 steel helmet was used and by whom?
I know that the KVP used them starting in 1952, but was there any earlier use of them, either in the days of the "Soviet Zone" or in the early days of the DDR 1949 -1952?
