I would think that most of you know me better after all these years and that I would never like to start any trouble, anywhere.

In any case:

I asked about this helmet on a Facebook page that I subscribe to, and my question seemed to have been ignored.

German Helmets of the Second World War Public Group | Facebook

It seems to me that the wire basket embellishment on this helmet has not been, well, "an embellishment" for seventy plus years. Or has it?

I’m just curious to know.

Thanks gents.

Cheers,
Richie
