Tan painted LW helmet in Halbe ? Interesting pics, thanks for sharing !

Hello thanks for the response.

Yes it is Tan painted, but I have no idea how it ended up in Halbe, maybe some Helmets were painted and never repainted?

I just don't know. I was not expecting Tan paint at all...

Thanks for sharing, it is a puzzler
Maybe a War souveneer dropped overboard by an Allied serviceman,
thats the only thing i can think of
