Recently I have come across pictures of British Mark II, III and IV helmets with a strange blue-green paint and it seems that it’s not a one-off, given that I’ve seen the pain on various types of British helmet. I am not sure whether they were used by one of the branches of the British Armed Forces, but in my opinion, they are not Police helmets (as in the case of post war British Police occupation helmets). Any ideas? I am posting two photos of helmets which are not in my personal collection.
