Published WW1 French Colonial Infantry M15 Adrian Helmet
Interesting Colonial Infantry M15 Adrian helmet which appears in the paperback publication ' From Tradition To Protection ' by the highly recommended ' In Flanders Fields Museum' of Ypres.
Helmet bears the flaming grenade & anchor of these troops to front with a first pattern one piece liner to interior. The name of ' OLIVIER' is scratched to the underside of the front peak with the name ' MASSAIS ' to rear. This may have some Colonial interest ( reference internet search ). All of the four corrugated metal strips are present behind the liner . Original chinstrap intact.
