battle-damaged camo SS ... still a real deal - 05/13/2007 04:52 PM
It's an ET64 M40 with a crack on top. There appear to be two layers of paint - tan and green. The liner, the rivets, and the chinstrap are intact. This makes me wonder what caused the crack, but two of my friends pointed out that this might have been caused by a fall from a high place when the helmet was not worn. But the cracking on the shell is not entirely uncommon ... especially on the ET shell. Anyway, any real camo SS is rare and this nice verdant color must have blended into the summer green ... maybe in Normandy?
