Ever since the time of Fredrick the Great, the German military has continuously find ways to improve how the soldiers perform in the field along with the things they employed out there. Among the means to which soldiers can look after themselves in combat is to use grease and fat to cover every soldier’s feet rather than socks to prevent painful blisters, an idea which originated for the Fredrick himself. Another of these innovations is the German WWII Helmet. Its source was traced back just before the outbreak of the First World War, the time when German field commander recognized the truth that as restated by Rambo, the most deadly weapon in battle, besides the brain, was field artillery.  It was and remains the King of Battle due to the extent of its damage and in most part; the helmet was created to safeguard the head from the damaging effects of shrapnel. Before the invention of the steel helmet, soldiers carry out their tasks by wearing complicated caps to identify them from the rest but field artillery have totally done away with it. Other countries like the Great Britain and France thought up their own designs but the design fabricated by the Germans was so perfect for it safeguard not only the entire head but also the ears plus it was machine stamped so factories can churn out hundreds of its kind every day. And as a proof of how good it really is, the America military and militaries from around the world adopted it and still use it up to this day. To all collector and military history aficionado the WWII Helmets are a long-awaited treat to their collection of swords, armors and other weapons, as important as the Roman Lorica or the Grand Armee’s backpack.
