My M40 SD Heer

Sharing with you my first combat helmet. NS64 SD Heer. Paint is a little rough, but Pocher decal is in great condition (sorry for the blurry pic) Only last two digits of lot number are legible as "..76" Liner dated 1942. Buckle end of strap is original to the helmet. I was able to pick up a long portion of a strap (WUPPERTAL 1940) for cheap as it was being sold with a broken buckle end, so it worked out well to complete this helmet. Drawstring is also a replacement, not sure if it’s period, but has a color that matches perfectly with the color of the liner, so I’m happy with it. Liner has one tear of about two-three inches near the back. Faint dome stamp. Overall, a very nice helmet, I think. Maybe not in "top shelf" condition, but it started my collection, so it’s on my top shelf. Enjoy! :)
