Good point, it’s possible.
The helmet is a Brodie Mk1* dated 1938 so he had it from the start! |

Thanks so much Mike, that does fill in some gaps, although the flash is still a mystery as it’s not a standard REME flash.
I thought I would attach the under rim showing his name etc. out of interest! |

Who knows? Thought it doesn’t look like it on inspection of the helmet! Will continue my search however.
