sunburst...

And the whole "french connection"

[Paul R]

The RLB helmet is especially attractive. I have not seen too many of those decals around!

Did they ever use any British or Americans helmets?

[Motorhead]

I've seen some pics from an LS exhibition at the "Auto und Technikmuseum,Sinsheim" showing a british LS helmet.But from the pics it was impossible to tell the helmet wa good or not.But I'm shure they have used british helmets.

That would be one to find!

Thank you for showing your awesome collection. I enjoy collecting the LS cloth tabs. I would love to find a tunic someday.

[Motorhead]

That would be another very interesting collection field-but how to tell the good from the bad? LS tabs can't be found on every corner and the stuff you can see at places like militaria321.com.........wasted money! A tunic or a complete uniform would be something for my mothers son,too .But unfortunately I'm collecting also iron crosses-and together with the helmets this is not the cheapest hobby..........but with a little luck(and of course the right money) I will get an M16 with an RLB sunburst decal!

[Paul R]

You see SHD, LSW, RLB and LSP tabs commonly?!?!?!?!?!? They are not easy for me to find. I am still missing some. You should take some photos and send to me. If they are good, I can send money!!!

I have seen the M18 with decal in photos!! A real beauty!

[Motorhead]

No,I don't see them everywhere-but what I see from time to time doesn't call "buy me".Mostly the same "suspect" sellers........
