      If you post this in the SS forum those guys will give you some good feedback. They are great at spotting fake decals. I am no expert but the decals make me nervous.

        I'm lost of words expecially for the Italian tri-colour shield, never used on Italian SS headgear.PaoloM

          The existence of the SS M33 is debatable.
          It's sure that there were many painted insignia (as this one...), sure also that RSI/SS were believers of their mission, so It's plausible that at a personal level a soldier painted the rune decal and Italian flag...
          With painted insignia It's almost impossible to say "when"...

            ditto
            "six italians, dressed in rather unusual diving suits and equipped with materials of laughably little cost have swung the military balance of power in the Mediterranean in favour of the Axis".

              The problem of these helmets SS Italian depends on the lack of pictures. There are very few available for those judgments. And the few photos available cast doubt on the friezes and do not provide any clarity on the friezes used. Hello.
