Not the same guys I was involved with though, which was the one affiliated to the now disbanded Recce Veterans Association.
Just the thing for putting round holes in square heads.

My 2 repro Para Helmets
Here are my 2 repro WW2 German para helmets which I purchased 2nd hand off eBay but they were in new condition. They are both basically the same repro helmet by the look of it but one of the previous owners decided to give one the "cammo-look". I haven't done anything to them apart from varnish the decals on the grey example. I am very pleased with these repro helmets for what they are, the price and when this is compared to the asking price of an original.

That tri-colour camo scheme was commonly used by the FJ in the Normandy campaign, the camo colours being copied from the scheme used on German vehicles and armour at the time.
