I could never seem to afford the high priced WW2 US, German, Italian or Japanese paratrooper helmets and then I came across this WW2 Australian paratrooper helmet. It wasn't as high priced as the other mentioned countries helmets. It was supposedly used in training only with the British Mark 2 paratrooper helmet worn in combat.

There is a name written inside the helmet. There is a fragile orange decal that dates the helmet. The date is in the upper right corner but it is hard to read mine as the decal has deteriorated.
