    WWII German Helmet Insignia Question

    I have a now deceased relative who was stationed in Germanyicon at end of WWII, he was there for several years assisting in wrapping things up. He brought back a couple of helmets; the one pictured is coming my way. I’ve been trying to identify the insignia on its right side, the left side is unmarked. Does anyone have any information on the insignia? Thanks for the assist!

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    My transatlantic second sight isn't working at the moment so a picture may help. :-)

    It will probably be the arm of the Wehrmacht - e.g. Kriegsmarine (Navy), Heere (Army), Luftwaffe (Air Force), etc.
