I saw it too. Wowzer, is right.You wonder if they actually had the division insignia painted on their helmet when in combat. Then, just yesterday I was browsing thru my library and saw a photo of a helmet painted just like that.

NO, THERE WAS NO INSIGNIA ON OUR HELMETS, and there were no officers bars on theirs either. WE had the patch on our jackets. AND THE C.I.B. ON OUR CHEST when we had the chance to go to a town. Including the last town I saw,BRESCIA. Roque. $1675 for the helmet, DAMN!!!!!!!!
