Italian M15 Helmet Converted By Austro-Hungarians
Interesting Italian Model 15 Helmet captured by the Austro-Hungarians & repainted for use by her armies.
Limited quantities of captured helmets were used by the Austrians often after having been converted by its repainting & the replacement of the existing foreign liner systems. The circular holes were to accomodate the replacement liner systems.
Much of its Austrian light brown ( now darkened) repaint is remaining with some dents to the shell asa result of its WW1 service.
