Our Uncle Theo was in the invasion of Normandy in 1945 and returned from the war with a suitcase full of Nazi memoribilia, including a black Nazi helmet. I have possession of that one. Since Bro had to research his new relic, he found information about Uncle's war prize as well. Uncle's helmet was a Nazi Police helmet, not a combat helmet. It's also worth around $1,500. We got the helmet in 1957 right after Uncle Theo died and I have kept it carefully preserved since then. It is in far better shape than most Nazi helmets. Unc's helmet is below.

Unc's helmet is not for sale for any price.
