Brtish paratrooper helmet









hello everyone,
I’m throwing myself at the mercy of the community on this one. I bought this fully thinking it is original WWII, but once I got it in hand, I’m not so sure. It has a powerful musty smell, the shell is non-magnetic (which I’ve heard is a good thing) and it matches a few later war examples I have seen online. However, it lacks any markings that are commonly seen on other examples. I could really use some helpful tips here, in case I need to return it. I also read that the IDF used a very similar style post-WWII
