Hi folks,
Not much of a helmet guy but I wanted to toss this out there. To the novice the helmet looks right but I dont know about the decal on the right side.. nothing on the left. Is that odd for a M42.
Any and all comments are appreciated but can you tell me why its wrong.. Something about the bottom of the decal not going to a point?
Thanks

agree with both the opinions so far. the liner looks like one of the czech made ones, with a bad `bootpolish` job to make it look older. and "l.S.S.A.H."
