Soviet Russian WW2 helmets?

Спасибо Сергей! Мне нравятся твои каски.

I like the SSh-40 model from 1944 with cloth liner. It looks great. Are the SSh-36 ground dug?

Thanks for warm words in Russian. Yes you are right some helmets are found in a place of fights Kareliy, Vyazma. And Ssh-39 I by in rural fire group. After removals they have been given to armies of Ssh-39 helmets in fire group.And I became the owner of one of them. I too love pre-war Soviet helmets. Especially I like model 36. Sometimes the ground changes color of a helmet with green for absolutely another .For example is last 36 where color red.But I became always glad to a find of the next subject.

Wow!! IS that enamel in the star? Is that a parade helmet?

[Bryan]

No it's not enamel. It is painted. Those are the Franch Adrian helmet pattern that were used during WWI by the tsarist army. After that the Soviet replaced the Romanov crest for a Soviet star like this.

The helmet from Sergey seems to have been repainted. Normally those are not shiny like this one.

All truly this helmet is painted anew. However a basis of Russian Adrian. I have shown it as an example of the Soviet helmets.

No, it is a paint and a standard Soviet helmet for the thirtieth years. In Soviet Union these helmets did of standard helmets of imperial army on Great war
