Helmet, Mk III, British, G&S 1943

€425.00 Tax included

Genuine WWII British Mk III helmet, complete with original liner and chinstrap.

Shell has no visible markings. Liner is hallmarked G&S (Gimson & Slater, Nottingham) and dated 1943; size 7 ¼.

Produced from 1943 onwards, the Mk III, offering a better enveloping shape than the Mk II, retains its predecessor's liner. It was not used in actual combat conditions before June 6, 1944: on D-Day, the 'Turtle' helmet was worn by British and Canadian units involved in the first wave of the amphibious landings.

The present helmet is in good, worn condition.
