Switzerland M18/43
Here is another example of a Swiss M18. In 1943 all M18 and M40 helmets were withdrawn to have a new sawdust mixed Matt Black paint applied, hence the M18/43.
The cover is the M1931 reversible summer/autumn "Zeltbahn" which was issued from 1943 and saw service through into the mid 1950's.
