Heer See this helmet

Hi,

Rick tells me to put this picture here. Take a look at this helmet of Oberst Horst von Wolff. This is not my speciality so I appreciate your comments

Private purchase in aluminium or fibre? Interesting arrangement of pins

[Guest Rick Research]

That's what I thought. The ONLY fiber ones I've ever seen are double decal pre-war "parade" helmets.

Thank you for sharing...

Looks fibre to me. Really odd. Maybe it was a comfort thing. Combat helmets were heavy and I suppose he was used to wearing a field cap most of the time. Really nice pic by the way.

Hallo Gents,

were fiber helmets not also allowed for any officer who had suffered head wounds?

Did Oberst Horst von Wolff. suffer any such wounds in service (if any) in WW1?

I think that it is a fiber helmet as well. Very interesting photo there!
