A fabulous untouched piece! One only sees something like this on a rare basis indeed.
Very interesting personal touch with that little doll stuck in the Pagri.
Can anyone identify the particular unit of that Pagri badge?
These helmets must have become quite worn and salty very quickly in the areas where they were used. I have often wondered just how long a soldier was normally expected to wear his helmet before replacing it. They are somewhat delicate compared to some other forms of headdress.
