Hello

I want to purchase my first German helmet and I’m a little concerned about being caught out being a novice and all.

I would be really grateful for an expert eye on this particular helmet and in particular whether the decal looks correct and whether you think it’s Heer or Kriegsmarine or something else I’m not aware of.

Thank you very much in advance.

Good Morning,
I have recently acquired this double decal M35 and was interested to hear peoples thoughts on the helmet. Particularly if it all looked genuine. Thank you for your assistance.
Kind regards,
Anthony

Stumbled across these Sturmmann chevrons on Bill’s site. They look similar to other rank insignias I have seen but how do I distinguish between these & fakes considering how good fakes are these days? Browsing SOF, Richard Underwood Militaria, & Reddick Militaria I see reproductions especially for rank insignia, shoulder boards, & collar tabs are virtually indistinguishable from originals these days.

Hi everyone, just got this job lot of shoulderboards. Can anybody tell me how old they are? Was the same type used 1943 through to 1960’s? Can these go in my WW2 collection? Thanks very much, Doug
