    In navy parlance, this helmet is for a Sick Berth Attendant (Medic in army speak).

    This one nicely marked to "DOC" along with the owners name and number: V547 H.Treller Volunteer Reserve). This helmet is made by the Canadian Lamp Company 1941. His name and number and SBA (Sick Berth Attendant) is written inside the helmet).

    I will post other helmets as time goes on. I used to solely collect Canadian lids and have in excess of 100. This is the extant of my Medical helmets (for now). Wait, I forgot, I've got a WW1 Canadian Medic Brodie too.

    Anyhow, always interested in more!

    Cheers,

    Geoff
