Spanish M21 Helmet “Trubia sin Ala”
My Spanish M21 helmet arrived today. This helmet was originally made in Trubia, Spain prior to the civil war and subsequently referred to as the Trubia "Sin Ala" without wings. It saw limited use and was replaced by the M26 "Con Ala" which had the side skirts for more protection. About 12,000 of these helmets were produced and recalled at the end of the war to be refitted with new liners, Eagle device and painted green as per 1943 regulations under the Franco regime.
Enjoy, Al
