Hello and welcome to my Website.
I have been collecting steel combat helmets off and on for over 40 years. It all started when I received a British MkII for my 8th Birthday.
As well as collecting other forms of Militaria in the past, steel helmets have always been my passion, so eventually my other Militaria was gradually sold off to fund my helmet collecting.
The purpose of this site is to share with you all my hobby and maybe give some reference to those who are starting out or just interested in helmets in general. I have tried not to be too technical so have just covered the basics.
I don't consider myself an advanced collector by any means so any and all comments are welcome, please don't hesitate to correct me on information that may be wrong as well, we are all still learning and think websites like this can in some way help the novice and advanced collector alike.
I would like to also thank the many collectors who have provided helmets and information to help build this site.
Thanks for looking in.
