Original German WWI M16 Stahlhelm Helmet Shell - Battlefield Pickup Ordnance A wonderful personal photo album

A wonderful personal photo album that contains 41 pages and 149 photos some of which have military aircraft and Luftwaffe officers

A retaining strap on the Rifle Boot kept the boot upright until the soldier dismounted and as he dismounted

when the cross was re-instituted during the Franco-Prussian War

though the trigger guard swivel is still present

We relieved elements of the 80th Division just east of Kassel near the Reichsautobahn at Heiligenrode

Original German WWI M16 Stahlhelm Helmet Shell - Battlefield Pickup Ordnance A wonderful personal photo albumOriginal Item: Only One Available. This is a very nice example of a totally original WWI German M16 Helmet shell, with remnants of what appears to be camouflage paint. The most noticeable features are the impact holes located on the top and rear of the helmet, a solid example of the harsh reality that is warfare. It is uncertain whether or not the damage was sustained while the helmet was being worn in combat or if it fell victim to target practice.
