Here is my new KM Helm. M 35, ET 64 size 57. The dome stamp is dated 1936. The decal is only 45% or so and the other was removed per orders it seems. A couple small dents, definate combat vet, named to Boyesen. I like it. byf

Here is a display of the awards that went to our friend Willi. He was a Flak gunner on a Flakvierling in Russia. Among other places. He has some real stories to tell. He shot down 2 Sturmoviks and took out a T34. He was never awarded a Luft. Flak Badge or a Tank Destruction Award. Still, a wonderful bunch. byf

Thanks for the kind words men. WWII Soviet gear is hard to find, but this guy does look pretty good. I would love to find a WWII Telgrieka some day and a real helmet to go with it, I'll keep dreaming. byf
