This is quite a scarce British made helmet. It is a raw edged Mk II which were made for ARP and civil defence use in early WW2. This one is painted to the front with the name of the original ownder Nursing Sister (N/S) F. Donnie, dated August 1940. With this helmet, I obtained her named 1940 Cdn marked gas mask and bag and dog dag (Lt N/S F.A O'Donohue...Canadian).
