Foreign use of FJ helmet

[polihelmet]

I was wondering, if as with the M series, german FJ helmets were sold or used by other countries besides germany. If anyone has pics, much better.
Ive heard of slovak and Romanian paras, any other?
Thanks in advance

Hi,

I've spoken this summer to a hungarian Szent László Paratrooper, he sad they've become german helmets too. Also they had ss pattern oak leaf trousers in use.
Once I a saw portrait of two hungarian paratroopers wearing hungarian tunics with german helmets.
And at last there's a pic of a slovakian soldier with Fj helmet with slovakian coat of arms on its right side.
Hope this helps!

Perron's Argentina used German uniforms.

Is there anything known whether they had a para unit as well?
