British Parachute helmet
Morning everyone,
I want to show you this helmet just arrived in my collection.
For some time I was looking a British Para helmet complete by all original parts, in good condition, but however enough used to tell its history, and this example it seemed that’s right.
It is year 2000 dated, medium size, version in ballistic material with rough green surface; probably NP manufacturer; the cover is a DPM Woodland covered by net, iconic presence for a Para helmet from every era!
Everything is held in place by a black rubber band fixed with the usual light green tape; the cat eyes are also they those originals, indeed is visible the "ghost" track under it. It seemed an interesting example for me and every your opinion is welcome.
