Hi All.
I am a sucker for "combat" helmets.
The helmets where you practically can smell the battlefield, are the one that i enjoy best.
This is one of those, an M40 ET64.
Best Regards.

Maybe an good Idea for a sticky, some nice helmet related period pics.
For a number of years, I have been interested in the various uniforms and pieces of headwear worn by the various NSKK Todt and Speer Organizations. Very little reference information is available on these organizations. Hopefully, some of our members will have something to add to this thread.
I will start with the tunic and visor cap of a Transport Gruppe Todt NSKK officer. The blank right collar tab indicates the Todt organization. Of interest are the buttons, that are also unit marked. The rank is Feldkornett. These paramilitary formations served as auxillary transport of war materials to the front and also confiscated goods back to Gerany from occupied areas. The black shoulder strap piping indicates the owner was a member of the Allgemeine or General Transport Todt.

Here are two of my bayonets. They are in great shape. One has wood grips and the other (I guess)Bakelite.
