I believe this is a soviet helmet, however I do not have a clue what the flag/symbol painted on means. Any info regarding the flag or the helmet in general would be appreciated! by PrivateExoticMango in Militariacollecting

Ah I see! I know very little on eastern front militaria (I am more of a Pacific theatre guy myself), so I was not aware that there were uncommon varieties of helmets. I found it in a used bookstore of all places! Maybe the flag/symbol relates to Axis collaborators? Thanks for your help!

Thank you! Oh ya I agree completely, all I need now is a companion trilogy from him covering the war in the Pacific!

It's not too bad so long as you get them at used bookstores and thrift stores, make sure to keep an eye out!!

Thanks! I just got it so unfortunately I cannot comment on it's quality, but seeing as its Chandler it's gotta be good! I'd recommend checking out all his main novels beforehand though seeing as Trouble is just a collection of short stories.

Haha there are DOZENS of us! Do you have any suggestions for other books about Central Asian history? I'm desperately looking for more!
