| Description: |
| Original WW2 Army issue helmet with complete liner and chin strap. Accompanying this helmet is the original hand written letter by the capturing GI's commanding officer needed to return the souvenier home which is dated 27 Sept 44, and a note from the original capturing GI explaining the letter. The helmet is in very good plus original condition, 90%+ original paint finish, stamped inside the back rim "NS66/D452". The chin strap is marked with the RBNr on the end. The commanding officers hand written letter reads: "1. I certify that I have personally examined the items of captured enemy military equipment mailed by Cpl. Walter P Xxxxxx, that they contain no explosives, fire arms or parts of fire arms, and that the trophy value of such items excludes any training, service or scrap value, and the mailing thereof is in conformity with provisions of section VIII. Cir. 217. W.D. 1 Jun 44 and the existing regulations of the theater commander. 2. The items referred to are: 1 German helmet". The letter is signed by Colonel H. Faught, Captain FA. A bit of humor, the note from Walter about the letter states at the end that the battery commander was "Colonel H. Faught, Captain F.A. His first name was Colonel but he was a captain"., |
