Original Item: Only One Available. This is a very nice genuine steel construction M34 “Square Dip” Third Reich helmet, outfitted for German WWII civic police issue. It was captured during the war by Allied forces, and those who captured it wrote their names on the leather liner. The very back of the liner is marked OUR SQUAD in a small shield. We cannot quite make out all of the names, but this is what we can see:
BILL EVANS
KENTUCKY
KID
Clarence Ducky
RAYMOND J. MOTLE
ALA.
Halmand
Bassett
Ohio
Barrey L. Crossey
PA.
D.
KADRIN
A definitely opportunity for further research!
The helmet originally featured genuine double decals of civic eagle and NSDAP swas, however these have been partly worn away, though the shape can still be seen. The helmet still has the original leather liner with all four securing split pins, with good exterior paint. It is marked with size 58.
Overall a great opportunity to pick up a USGI Bring back WWII Civic Police helmet, with the names of the squad that found it! Ready to display!
