I thought I would share these images from this Anzac Day. The 2nd/48th boys were quite happy to sign this helmet for my collection. There are only a few left ( all in their 90s ) and I thought it important to my collection of 2nd/48th memorabilia to add something a bit different.
Bill and Dean are original Rats Of Tobruk, still going strong 75 years later.
The helmet is a light desert colour on the left side and light green on the right, depicting the boys journey from Tobruk to Tarakan.

Here is an prior thread on this early RAD buckle:
