westernhighlander Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I exceeded the limit on my previous post, soam continuing here.... Below is another WWi/interwar pith helmet, I'm not sure. It has the helmet flash of the sphinx in red with S.LAN.R embroidered in red as well. I presume it to be that of the South Lancashire Rifles. On the inside of the liner is the war dept stamp and the number 14 below it with the letter C above. The liner and looks to be later war or inter war, Again I cant be certain and would appreciate it if anyone could offer any info that may determine its date so that I can then try to determine where the soldier who wore it would have been stationed. Additionally, does the "C" above the WD stamp suggest its Canadian? Thanks, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjac Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Nice helmet. Small point- it's the South Lancashire 'Regiment', rather than 'Rifles' Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
