These were brought home from my Grandfather in Law from the War, notice the bullet hole with "Boche Kaput", looks as if he wrote on the helmet, everywhere he went. Like my grandfather, he didn't talk much about the war, so I never was able to ask any questions about these helmets
Awesome - you're lucky to have those
I love the trench art one-- FANTASTIC!
The tradition of captured "diary" helmets continues today:
