*** Falaise Gap , Normandy *** Pickup M40 Army Helmet

Left out for the binmen some 60 years ago this was recovered by the vendors father & recently inherited by his son ...
Faintly written on the liner are the words & date ' Falaise Gap 30th August 1944 ' . I would guess this is the date it was picked up by the soldier whilst surveying the carnage of the Falaise Gap some days after the fighting was over.
