Cody Grayland Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 (edited) This could be an open thread to display your M-1917 steel helmets.Having recently retired from TR helmet collecting, a neglected interest in M-1917 steel helmets has been rekindled to replace the passion for things TR.I'll go first - ID that is.
