So this is an M56 Stahlhelm, which was basically worn by the one bunch of commie dirtbags who never actually... saw combat. So it's an effective piece of gear made for a country that never got to use it. Which is why I can buy one for so freaking cheap. Also a super crappy selfie of myself. Sometime I'll get someone to take an actually-high-quality, full-body picture of me wearing the uniform.
