    Help with Luft FPN

    I have a Luftwaffe M42 helmet coming with the owner's name & FPN painted in the skirt. The FPN is 10123B. Could anyone help me with some unit information?
    Thanks, Stephen

    Although there were various name changes we're basically talking of the 1 batterie, Heeres Flak abteilung 287 of the 9 Pz.Div.. not a luftwaffe unit at all however it wouldn't be a great surprise to see LW flak personnel transferred in. It's also the right kind of unit for the helmet to have been an American vet pickup, ie. Fought in the West 44\45

      Fpn

      Simon,
      Thanks for the information. I have not received the helmet yet but I am looking forward to it. There is supposed to be another FPN written in the liner.
