    Interesting helmet find

    While rummaging around in the back room of my favorite antique store I uncovered this camouflaged M1917A1. While I am used to seeing M17s of the Great War painted in camouflage, this one is new to me. So, I scratched it under the chinstrap and it followed me home. Only drawback are the leather ties in the liner, they are dry rotted.
