Hey guys, got a helmet from my grandfather's stash after he passed away a few years ago. It's been sitting on a shelf in my basement and I'm trying to find some info on it. I'm assuming it's German due to the shape but I'm looking for any info ( dates, country, etc ). Thanks guys.

They were used from 1942 all the way into the 1980's. A bunch of them came to the US as surplus in the early 90's. |

You can recognize the Spanish model by the helmet liner, chin strap and the tell tail item is the bracket on the front that held a Spanish metal eagle crest. You can still locate them. They are not that expensive. Look on Ebay.
