AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Italian tropical helmet from the 1940s or 1950s.
This type of tropical helmets was also worn in Abyssinia (Ethiopia) during 1935-1936.
Under Emperor Haile Selassie
Because the war was not smoothly managed, Adolf Hitler commanded troops of the army and the Luftwaffe.
Lacking their own tropical gear, the Deutsche Afrika Korps around 1941 also wore such a helmet, then with two badges on the sides of the tropical helmet.
1. The eagle with a swastika, the other side a shield with red, white, and black.
These were metal shields.
Size 57
In nice used condition
