My father brought back some souvenirs from WWII (30th Infantry - D-Day + 30 to the Elbe, 60mm Mortar Crew). He spent 6 months on the front lines including the Battle of the Bulge at Melmedy.

Although he never talked much about his experiences he did mention the souvenirs came from a Hitler Youth disarmed at the end of the war. The items included a pistol belt, dress tunic, gas mask and the helmet shown here. The Luger disappeared in transit and the other items have also been lost before my mother died.

As I remember the tunic was quite small as is the helmet. I can find no identifying marks other than on the tip of the chin strap and in the top of the leather liner. There is a WD scratched in the back underside of the helmet. These initials do not match any in our family.
