Spanish Civil War Republican Forces Combat Helmet

Picked this up on Sunday from a monthly militaria show in my area.  A bit out of my collecting realm but was just too nice and complete to pass up.  Is this another example of  a Czech M26 helmet used by the Republican Forces?  If any one can Id the unit insignia I'd be all ears.  Thanks for looking.

Hello sir, sorry about the late reply on this... Helmet is indeed a Czechoslovakian m30 helmet.... Worn by both sides during the conflict... The emblem is of Franco’s Fascist 40th Infantry Regiment .... Hope this helps... By the way, are you in Spain?

Might be wrong on the insignia. I'll have to double check..

I think the 40th is correct. You can barely make it out in the second picture in red

Sorry the third picture

Thank you very much for taking the time to reply to my post.  Just to let you know that I have since sold this helmet after my post.  Thanks again.
