Review - South African 6th armored division MKII helmet

[joaobr]

Hello gentlemen,

This is a South African MKII that I found a few years ago. It features the typical sand-colored livery and triangular livery of the 6th South African Armored Division. The liner is dated 1949.

Along with the chinstraps on the hull, there is a wire wrapped around each side, I don't know what they could be used for.

I appreciate any thoughts on the helmet and observations on the insignia paint job. I received some opinions that it may have been done post-war

Thanks
