| Heer (Army) Tropical Helmet, First Pattern, above four photos. The Heer Insignia on the left side is made of zinc. The tri-color National Insignia on the right side is made of aluminum. This helmet is constructed from stretched tan cotton fabric over a pressed wood form. This is unusual as most of the helmets produced are constructed from pressed cork. The blond leather liner band is missing from this helmet, but all six aluminum cotter pins remain in place. |
