I was trying to win this one on ebay but was outbid.
Kind of wanted to put in more for because of how interesting it is.
It shows 2 late war navymen wearing civilian defense helmets.
Now I know everyone has always said there was a theory these were "last ditch" helmets used in the war at the very end on Okinawa.
Could this be evidence to support them being used? Is it just a prop helmet that was in the picture studio at the time? Sadly no writing on the back.
Maybe some sory of fireman in the navy and these are what they wore? I know its not solid proof that they were used in combat at wars end,but this sure is a picture to suggest that theory just a litttttle bit more .
Did anyone on the forum win it????
Id love to know if the helmets have an anchor attached.
