WW2 British Assistant Fire Guard Officers Helmet 1941
From a private British helmet collection recently purchased many of which will be offered on the collectors market for the first time in the forthcoming updates.
A very nice Assistant Fire Guard Officer helmet with 1 inch black band on white base broken front & back for the initials 'FG'.
Helmet is a three holed grey MkII No.2C with some of the grey paint showing through the damaged areas of the white overpaint. Web chinstrap intact.
The Fire Guard were a highly organised body as of 1941 formed from the pre existing Fire watchers who were performing an essential role watching for fires caused as a result of the constant Air Raids .
