MKII Cruise Visor:

Here is my latest helmet, the MKII Cruise Visor.

Around 1915 Norway ordered 10 000 helmets from the UK.
Norway dident at that time have any helmets in their army.
When the MK helmets arrived, a few of them was delivered whit the Cruise visor.
My helmet is one of those.

Acording to the info i got, less then 2000 MKII helmets was equiped whit the Cruise visor.
I dont know of any other remaining example from Norway.

This is my holy grail in the Norwegian part of my collection.

Best Regards
Ståle
