Default TWP OFFICERS BRODIE HELMETS WITH ATTACHED BADGES

Thought to show these two which are both first pattern Brodies with the unsleeved rim.
My Second Battalion Monmouthshire helmet has been re lined for WW2 and probably service in the Home Guard. The bronze OSD badge has been riveted to the shell. On my second example the Artillery officer has obviously used the badges standard blade fittings to clip to the cover. This one has the private purchase cover and liner.

Rob, I did recognise the Mons helmet from over there but it is so good you could post that one as many times as you want, mind you the RA helmet with the cover, another stunner, I am green.
