Was watching a documentary "After Hitler". Helmets made into colanders. ![](http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h42/texasvet2/616BE6BC-EA5C-469C-BAAE-D26B3104160E_zpsk77ylxmn.png) ![](http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h42/texasvet2/7FB1C7C9-F6AD-4003-8443-F93880929B74_zpsbupzfvjs.png)

Dave, I had no idea you could recall such events from that time; nor that you were approaching 100. Saluuuute!

Andy,
I lived in France 1949-1953. 6 years old to 10 years old.
The ones I saw had 4 legs brazed on but no handle.
Dave
