55th division MkII helmet ??
Hi,
I have this MkII helmet with what looks like the 55th division painted insignia for vehicles, in my opinion. If I am wrong what other lancashire connection may it be ? Regards Normandie18 20210131_233206.jpg 20210131_233229.jpg

Just got this picture if a WW1 55th West Lancs helmet but with sack covering and embroidered badge, never seen a 55th Div transfer or painted badge on a helmet.

Thanks Mike that is most interesting especially as it shows the first pattern of badge for the Division with 7 leaves per stem before they were replaced with 5 to reflect the Divisions “55” number.
