Important! Interesting info on ‘chinstrap over visor’ debate.
I have found this website, which seems to have a translated copy of a Luftwaffe directive # 422. It describes the new M35 helmet (Stahlhelm 35) and details of regulations surrounding it. The whole thing is worth a read but particularly section B/5;
"If the chinstrap is not worn under the chin, it is to be placed around the top of the visor."
