M40 KM ET64; double decal; Atlantikwall sand camo

[smbr57]

This is my first post on this exciting new forum. I am a WW2 collector specializing primarily in German and Japanese helmets.

 

Here is a nice Atlantikwall camo brought back by a US veteran.

 

Lot number 354. It originally had a black lined decal but a later grey lined KM decal was field applied. You almost never see field applied KM decals.

 

Beach sand was used to give it a rough finish in the camo paint.
