With the assistance of the collected knowledge of this forum I purchased this helmet a few weeks back and decided it was time to post a few photo’s. The more i have looked at the M42 no decal I’ve started to notice some faint initials on one of the tongues in grean opposite the liner size stamp. Very faint but does look like something is there - either Th or Tb??

I also posed a relic M42 that I own as a comparison of the colours. The relic helmet was allegedly found near Liepaja City - Coastal Artillery positions.

Anyway, enjoy and have a great festive season.
