French Adrian helmet question?

[browningautorifle]

Yes, the size is 58...that's big I think...7-1/8th if I'm right...just a bit tight for me. As for which pattern, stand by...they'll be along...

That is the M26, post WW1, used all the way thru WW2. Khaki color generally means colonial troops, but I think they started painting all of them khaki in the 30s. ( early Adrians were blue for the French army )
