it is the correct weave

Vintage WWII US Navy WAVES women's trousers

German Helmet Made into a Strainer italian it is the correct weaveOriginal German helmet that was made into a strainer after the war. You can still see the vent holes and you can see where they welded covers over the holes for the split pins. It is in decent condition with some rust and chips on the enamel. A very interesting piece of history. I have a few of these on my shelf and I have a few that I use fairly regularly just to inject a little whimsy into my day.
