    Dutch Weer afdeelingen (WA) Helmet...views?

    Any worthwhile opinions on this one..a mint 40 pattern WA helmet.Decal has the metallic content.The only reference I can find to this helmet in Bauer's book on page 363.I believe the decals on this helmet compare favourably with the ones pictured but any views out there?
    The helmet comes with no story....

        yes indeed the dutch nskk wear those the wa (nsb) wore those
        but the dutch w-ss (imo) they wear the common ss decals
        and sometimes they were on the other side of the helmet the dutch-shield

        dan is this a double decal

          Yes John,I can confirm it's a double decal. The paint is also a slightly different colour green than I have seen on other German helmets.
          Dutch sprayed as well?
          Bauer states that these helmets were mostly worn by Dutch Weer Afdeelingen,the stormtroopers of the NSB. Apparently there is also an original WA helmet in the resistance musuem at Overloon although I haven't seen it myself.
