1/6 South African Field Artillery Rgt. Mk II Helmet
This is SA Mk II helmet has been painstakingly restored by me (well, put together!) since some time ago I had bought the bare shell, found in Florence, Italy, unluckily without liner nor chin strap. After quite a long time I have managed to find a proper SA made liner complete with the "large" nut and bolt, and a suitable chin strap. The tac sign depicted on the shell is supposedly of the 1/6 SA Field Artillery Regiment, of which the 3/17th Rhodesian Field Battery was part. Still if not a completely genuine piece, still quite a rare helmet I am rather proud of....
